Books like Bleeding Heart Square

A long, low-key and quite slow moving, but ultimately very rewarding read. Taylor writes so well that he manages to convey surroundings, characters and atmosphere of 1930s Britain that will almost have you transported there.Lydia Langstone walks out on her abusive husband and moves in with her estranged father in his apartment in Bleeding Heart Square. In doing so, she unknowingly stumbles onto and into dark secrets, both old and current. Despite the low pace, my interest was kept up and I found the ending both good and satisfactory. A recommended read.
