New York Times Book Review Notable Book of the Year
Human Croquet tells the story of Isobel Fairfax, a girl growing up in Lythe, a typical 1960s British suburb. But Lythe was once the heart of an Elizabethan feudal estate and home to a young English tutor named William Shakespeare, and as Isobel investigates the strange history of her family, her neighbors, and her village, she occasionally gets caught in Shakespearean time warps. Meanwhile, she gets closer to the shocking truths about her missing mother, her war-hero father, and the hidden lives of her close friends and classmates.
A stunning feat of imagination and storytelling, Kate Atkinson's Human Croquet is rich with the disappointments and possibilities every family shares.

Descriere
From the author of "Behind the Scenes at the Museum" comes a wildly inventive, deeply moving, and darkly comic tale of a young girl's exploration of her past. At once a fairy tale, a mystery, and a family saga, by turns comic and tragic, the novel is rich with the disappointments and possibilities that every family shares.
