NOTES
Read by Sophie Bennet
Elizabeth von Arnim's The Enchanted April is a charming and restorative tale about renewal, friendship, and the transformative power of beauty. The novel follows four English women, each discontented with her life, who impulsively rent a medieval castle in Italy for a month. Amid the blossoms of spring and the serene Mediterranean light, their hearts and minds undergo profound changes. The book is both gentle and quietly radical, offering a vision of escape from social duty and personal frustration into a realm where joy and harmony are possible. With its lyrical descriptions of nature and its tender humor, von Arnim weaves a story that celebrates the healing potential of companionship and the liberating effect of stepping outside one's routine
