A Spring of Love

A Spring of Love by Celia Dale introduces us to Esther Williams, who is thirty and single. Her life is one of routine and order; she lives with her grandmother in a small house, takes a seaside holiday each year, and every Thursday, she goes to the cinema alone.

Esther is uncertain if she is happy or unhappy; her life follows the same unchanging pattern. This changes one Thursday night when she meets Raymond Banks.

Raymond becomes everything to Esther. For the first time, she feels truly alive. Raymond transforms her awareness of the world, and she quickly falls deeply in love with him.

However, Esther is horrified when she discovers something about Raymond that threatens to ruin their happiness.

This beautifully observed novel explores love in all its guises. It is a gripping and unforgettable story of tension, betrayal, and ultimately, the realisation that we can never truly know anyone.
