The Engagements

The Engagements โ€“ J Courtney Sullivan

(Virago, ยฃ13.99)

If you have ever pressed your nose up against a jewellery shop window and wondered who has worn that antique diamond engagement ring then this book is for you. We follow one ringโ€™s journey through the 20th century as we are given touching insights into the peopleโ€™s lives who have owned it, and the reason they got married; from lust to loneliness and even love itself, itโ€™s all there.

 

The Engagements is laid out in five sections, each chapter set in a different year, allowing the stories to flow without being confusing for the reader. This is charming, emotive and thoroughly entertaining โ€“ definitely well worth a read.
