Résumé :
|
Every summer, brothers Hugh, Edward and Rupert Cazalet take thier wives and children back to their childhood home in the heart of the Sussex countryside. There, they join their formidable parents and unmarried sister rachel for two months of glorious, sunlit days full of childish games and picnics on the beach. But not even this idyllic setting can allievate heartache, fear and loneliness. Hugh haunted by memories of battle in France, is terrified at the prospect of another war. Handsome, charming Edward, who escaped the war unscathed, is more concerned with matters close at hand, but his wife Villy, desperately bored after her life as a dancer, is unaware of his continuous infidelities. Rupert, the talented painter, finds that he cannot both paint and be married to his beautiful and demanding wife, Zoe[u0308]. And Rachel is so loyal to her family that she has no time to devote to Sid - the woman she feels so passionately about.
