Dedicated to all who "appreciate wisteria and sunshine, " The Enchanted April is Elizabeth Von Armin's dreamlike celebration of womanhood, friendship, and love.Published in 1922 to critical acclaim, The Enchanted April follows the story of four strangers: Mrs. Wilkins and Mrs. Arbuthnot, two housewives whose marriages have lost their spark, Mrs. Fisher, an elderly widow who longs for the days of her youth, and the beautiful socialite, Lady Caroline. Seeking a vacation and a desperately needed change of scenery, each woman answers an ad in the Times to rent a medieval castle for the month of April. Arriving at their beautiful temporary home in the picturesque country of Italy, the women–both individually and apart–go on journeys of self-discovery, growing as friends and learning the joy and value of having a room of one's own.An immediate bestseller upon its initial publication and never out of print since, The Enchanted April has charmed and delighted readers for over a century with its lyrical prose and endearing characters.
