Village Diary: A Novel

“If you’ve ever enjoyed a visit to Mitford, you’ll relish a visit to Fairacre. ” —Jan Karon

Miss Read once again transports readers to the picturesque English village of Fairacre with her Village Diary. Having received a beautiful diary for Christmas, she proceeds to set down a year’s worth of observations and experiences as the village school’s headmistress. And what a year it is!

As the villagers prepare for their country pageant, Fairacre welcomes many newcomers, such as the headstrong Amy; the earnest new infants’ teacher, Miss Jackson; and Mr. Mawne—whom the villagers would like to see the reluctant Miss Read marry …

“Miss Read's Books … have deservedly received the highest praise from both English and American reviewers. ” —The New York Times Book Review

“Miss Read reminds us of what is really important. And if we can’t live in her world, it’s certainly a comforting place to visit. ” —USA Today
