'An enchanting debut'
—Woman's Own November 1942Dhearing Elizabeth, I've acquired myself a fresh job, to cheer myself up a lttle bit. It has nothing at all regarding the war work. We're completely starved of art in London these days. Anything good was stashed away by the regulators years ago. However the National Gallery is going to dust off one masterpiece every month, wear it display, and invite us public to trail in front of it. I've promised myself solemnly that I am going to go along every month to see whichever painting it is that has been chosen, then write and let you know all about it. So, what do you think? It must be much better than knitting socks for sailors or collecting old tin to carefully turn into Spitfires. Love Daisy Seventy years later, Daisy's words provide an unimagined effect on Claire. Devastated following a miscarriage she has distanced herself from her own life, and from her partner, Rob. Unable to deal with her own simple fact, Claire becomes enthusiastic about Daisy, and since she traces her life, month-by-month, painting-by-painting, she starts off to notice intriguing parallels between their lives. But Daisy is from another time, and even though the paintings stay as beautiful as ever, Claire must accept that days gone by cannot be transformed and that she must let Daisy go if she actually is ever to go on.
