Status Updates From Mrs. Lorimer's Quiet Summer

First published 1953
Molly Clavering was a neighbour and close friend of best selling author D E Stevenson. Mrs. Lorimer's Quiet Summer is not only a family story but undoubtedly provides some indication of the inspiring friendship between these two brilliantly talented women.

“Mrs. Lorimer could not imagine how some women seemed to find it romantic and exciting…to meet an old flame again.

She remembered that the impact of Richard’s personality had always exhausted her…and now she felt battered.”
