Publisher's Synopsis
"Persephone publishes English Climate because, 75 years after the end of the Second World War, we wanted to pay tribute to the people who lost their lives, and the people who lived through it. One of these was Sylvia Townsend Warner. Born in 1893, by the time war broke out she was an established novelist, and from 1936 onwards her short stories appeared mostly in The New Yorker."
