»So vollendet, elegant und kultiviert, wie es ihre vielen Verehrer erwarten dürfen.« Julian Barnes Clary und Polly wird es zu eng in Sussex, wie ihre Cousine Louise zieht es sie nach London. Gemeinsam leben sie ihren Traum von Unabhängigkeit: Sie teilen sich eine Wohnung, lernen Stenografie und Maschineschreiben und bieten den Schwierigkeiten in der zunehmend kriegsmüden Hauptstadt mit jugendlichem Schwung die Stirn. Die eigensinnige Louise wiederum entscheidet sich zur Überraschung aller für die Ehe – ihr Eintritt in die High Society. Schon bald allerdings muss sie erfahren, was es bedeutet, in Kriegszeiten nicht nur Mutter, sondern auch die Gattin eine ehrgeizigen Marineoffiziers zu sein.
