The Enchanted April by Elizabeth Von Arnim Contents

It began in a Woman’s Club in London on a February afternoon—an uncomfortable club, and a miserable afternoon—when Mrs. Wilkins, who had come down from Hampstead to shop and had lunched at her club, took up The Times from the table in the smoking-room, and running her listless eye down the Agony Column saw this: To Those who Appreciate Wistaria and Sunshine.

Small mediaeval Italian Castle on the shores of the Mediterranean to be Let Furnished for the month of April.
