Lovely continuation of the London trilogy. I found it interesting, telling and almost unbearably poignant that Hughes wrote of her life up to her marriage and then started this last memoir after the death of her beloved. Put me in mind of Donne ('twere profanation of our joys...) and made me long for a dose of British reserve in my daily papers. Hughes wrote vividly, accessibly and well. I adored this book as I adored the first three. Highly recommended. ( )
