Lolly Willowes is a twenty-eight-year-old spinster when her adored father dies, leaving her dependent upon her brothers and their wives. After twenty years of self-effacement as a maiden aunt, she decides to break free and moves to a small Bedfordshire village. Here, happy and unfettered, she enjoys her new existence nagged only by the sense of a secret she has yet to discover. That secret, and her vocation, is witchcraft, and with her cat and a pact with the Devil, Lolly Willowes is finally free.
Condition
Good plus condition for age. There is a little fading to the spine and the merest hint of a lean. Light rubbing to corners but otherwise in strong readable condition.
