5.0 out of 5 stars Absent in the Spring and other Novels, 11 Jan 2006
By Fellows (England) - See all my reviews
I now own all of Mary Westmacotts (pseudonym of Agatha Christie) books there being 6 in total which you can purchase as two books from Amazon. All of Agatha Christies . I loved Absent in the Spring it shows you about relationships between the the mother/wife and her family. The mother (a terrible snob) is stranded in India at a train station in the middle of no where whilst travelling home from seeing her sick daughter (truth was her daughter had tried to kill herself due to having a love affair). She has loads of time on her hands and starts to reflect on her life past and present and has to face what the truth of her life is. Now when the train pulls into the station she has two roads to choose. Does she choose the old life which is what she knows and feels safe to her even though it is a sham or does she take the unknown path which would make her a better mother and wife maybe..... read and find out!!
