In perspective. Howard E. J.

from the author of the “Chronicle of the Casal Family”, an outstanding work of the 20th century.

“In the future,” is a witty and frank romance, covering two decades of Anthony and Conrad Fleming.

Each subsequent part of the novel leads us further through the life of Anthony, until we return in 1926 and we will not learn about the events that led to a fateful meeting with Conrad. We see a young lady who is preparing for marriage, and her relatives, torn by contradictions.

In this insightful and ultimately gloomy work, Elizabeth Jane Howard brilliantly draws a portrait of a family in which a woman is deprived of the right to choose.

“Think only: the novel“ In the Preight ”, so mature and technically perfect, was just her second book.” - Hilary Mantle, the author of the “wolf hall” and “Bring the bodies.”

“Howard writes brilliantly, and her characters are always believable. She makes you laugh, cry, and sometimes shocking. ” - Rosamund Pilcher, author of “Graduates of shells” and “On Christmas Eve”.
