Alice, the protagonist in this slim delightful novel, moves with her family from the US to Australia. They rent a luxurious but kitschy “chateau” with a gardener. Set in the 70s, Alice is catapulted into a different country and life - a “dream” life of money, entertaining guests, private schools and looking for a housekeeper. We find out that Alice was an independent woman who worked in publishing. So maybe this isn‘t a dream life? Loved it!
