Books like The Enchanted April by Elizabeth von Arnim


An advertisement in The Times invites women who appreciate wistaria and sunshine to lease a small medieval Italian castle for April. Four disparate women—Mrs. Wilkins and Mrs. Arbuthnot, both fleeing unappreciative husbands; Lady Caroline, weary of lovesick suitors; and the imperious, ageing Mrs. Fisher—embrace the opportunity. In the Mediterranean’s beauty and warmth, they find camaraderie and a fresh start, forever changing their lives.
