It began in a Woman's Club in London on a February afternoon-an uncomfortable club, and a miserable afternoon-when Mrs. Wilkins, who had come down from Hampstead to shop and had lunched at her club, took up The Times from the table in the smoking-room, and running her listless eye down the Agony Column saw this: To Those Who Appreciate Wistaria and Sunshine. Small mediaeval Italian Castle on the shores of the Mediterranean to be Let furnished for the month of April. Necessary servants remain. Z, Box 1000, The Times . That was its conception; yet, as in the case of many another, the conceiver was unaware of it at the moment. So entirely unaware was Mrs. Wilkins that her April for that year had then and there been settled for her that she dropped the newspaper with a gesture that was both irritated and resigned, and went over to the window and stared drearily out at the dripping street.

Four very different women---the dishevelled and downtrodden Mrs Wilkins, the sad, sweet-faced Mrs Arbuthnot, the formidable widow Mrs Fisher, and the ravishing socialite Lady Caroline Dester---are drawn to the shores of the Mediterranean that April. As each, in turn, blossoms in the warmth of the Italian spring and finds their spirits stirring, quite unexpected changes occur. The Enchanted April (1922) is a deceptive and timely novel immured in a post-war context, a period noted for its wistful and sometimes satiric writings. Von Arnim's novel is part of this oeuvre and portrays an escape to a carefully described pastoral enclave away from encroaching urbanisation and the spread of new technologies, in an era when the Great War had left many emotionally and physically starved. The journey to San Salvatore by four unhappy women is an escape from stifling parochialism, constraining social and gendered expectations as well as stultifying insularity, but the evocation of an extraordinarily aesthetic and 'enchanted' location suggests more than personal recuperation.

A lovely tale of enticing figures that turn themselves into an enchanting location during their holiday. With idyllic depictions of spring in Italy, this is delightfully amusing and observant. With its well-drawn female characters, magical atmosphere, and happy ending for everyone. Led to action by the monotony of their lives in London, two not-quite friends resolve to rent a medieval Italian castle for a month in the hopes of seeking revival. They are accompanied by two other ladies, a socialite and a dowager, searching for a solution to their problems. As the quartet finally settles in together (though not always gracefully), they share the charm and pleasure of their springtime castle, and each of them rediscovers the selves they had lost. The concern is whether the magic will be carried over into their lives and loves in the "real" world. This is a timeless classic that inspired the film of the same name. The book is full of reflective and informative introspection and significant character interaction that turns the characters from traditional archetypes to more thoroughly fleshed-out women. The book's structure and vocabulary are poetic and romantic, which acts as a fun backdrop for the development we witness in character. The book contains a biography of one of the most famous British writers - Elizabeth von Arnim.

The Enchanted April, by Elizabeth Von Amim, is a story of four women, all seeking a place to get away. A discreet advertisement in The Times, addressed "To Those who Appreciate Wistaria and Sunshine", offers a small medieval castle for rent, above a bay on the Italian Riviera. Four very different women - the dishevelled and downtrodden Mrs Wilkins, the sad, sweet-faced Mrs Arbuthnot, the formidable widow Mrs Fisher and the ravishing socialite Lady Caroline Dester - are drawn to the shores of the Mediterranean that April. As each, in turn, blossoms in the warmth of the Italian spring and finds their spirits stirring, quite unexpected changes occur.
