Review: A Spell of Winter
A Spell of Winter tells the story of teenage siblings, Cathy and Rob, living in Edwardian England. Their parents are dead, and they are raised by their grandfather – often mentioned but rarely seen – in a crumbling house somewhere in the English countryside. We follow Cathy as she comes of age, navigates her increasingly fraught relationship with her brother, and decides what she wants from life.
