Description: " ... A series of twelve linked fictions detailing the story of Amanda Ellis, a young Canadian girl who goes with her parents to England 'for a year that stretched into two, ' and her life at St. Mildred's school. ... The result is an intricate collage which gives a sense of English life as viewed by an outsider during the 1950s, as the country tries to dust itself off in both the aftermath of the Second World War and the collapse of the British Empire."--Publisher.
