Description

The House in France by Gully Wells. 'Six years after her mother's death, Gully Wells returns to La Migoua, the house in Provence that belonged to her mother - the glamorous, clever and furiously rude American journalist Dee Wells. Surrounded by decades of clutter, Gully is taken back to her childhood, to her mother's life, to her adored stepfather - the celebrated philosopher, A. J. Ayer - to studying in Oxford and her relationship with Martin Amis, and to vibrant memories of growing up in the sixties London surrounded by figures such as Bobby Kennedy, Iris Murdoch, Mary Quant, Isaiah Berlin and Bertrand Russell. The House in France is a dazzling portrait of growing up in an extraordinary family and of the spirit of a cherished house.
