"Modern love story, set in Cornwall and interwoven with the living past of five generations of the Quin family, and illustrative of life - as Chaucer says - as a "thinne subtil knittinge of thinges". A medieval book of hours plays a part in the plot."
"Five generations of Quins havelived in China court, a house built in a remote village on the Cornish moors in 1840 and named after the china clay works from which the family draws its prosperity, and in this story past and present are interwined. This is a rich portrait of a family and a house."
