The name Helen McClelland is familiar to fans of schoolgirl literature worldwide. But the author is equally well-known in the musical world as the cellist Margaret Moncrieff, and the setting for her latest novel, Time and Again, is a music school in Scotland. Here, mysterious happenings and a rather unusual kind of time slip show a new approach to the traditional school story.
“Time and Again is a touching and not-to-be-missed novel in which the potent ingredients of elusive memories, great music and a ‘haunted’ old turret room link young people from very different societies and periods. The deftly handled time shifts satisfyingly convey the atmosphere of both the late 1930s and the present day.” — Mary Cadogan
