The British Library
An evocative novel from a curated series by popular women writers, republished by the Library to bring once popular and bestselling tales to a new audience; each with an eclectic mix of heroines reflecting the changing lives of women across the 20th century.
Tea is so Intoxicating: who would have thought opening a tea garden at David Tompkins’ Kentish cottage could cause such scandal in the village? A tale of village rivalries and memorable characters; including a local commercial rival at the Perch's Tea Garden, a mysterious Viennese ‘cake cook’ and an imposing lady of the manor. With rumours spreading about the Tompkins' not being 'properly married' can David and Germayne also manage a visit from their daughter Ducks and her first husband Digby?
Originally published in 1950, a classic story by Mary Essex (1892-1984), a penname of bestselling author Ursula Bloom.
