THEY WERE SISTERS FROM PERSEPHONE BOOKSFirst published in 1943, 'They Were Sisters is a compulsively readable but often harrowing novel by one of Persephone's best writers, who always manages to make the ordinary extraordinary,' writes Celia Brayfield in her preface. This is the fourth Dorothy Whipple novel we have republished and, like the others, it is apparently gentle but has a very strong theme, in this case domestic violence. Three sisters marry very different men and the choices
First published in 1943, 'They Were Sisters is a compulsively readable but often harrowing novel by one of Persephone's best writers, who always manages to make the ordinary extraordinary,' writes Celia Brayfield in her preface.
This is the fourth Dorothy Whipple novel we have republished and, like the others, it is apparently gentle but has a very strong theme, in this case domestic violence. Three sisters marry very different men and the choices they make determine whether they will flourish, be tamed or be repressed. Lucy's husband is her beloved companion; Vera's husband bores her and she turns elsewhere; and Charlotte's husband is a bully who turns a high-spirited naive young girl into a deeply unhappy woman. This is the story of how those marriages shape the sister’s lives, the consequences of their decisions, and the sisterly love that hopes to save them from tragedy.

Good buy
Size: 28W x 34L, Color: Medium Indigo
My 16-y/o 6' grandson wears the 28"-34". Not easy to find. These fit him well. Material is regular blue jean. Good value

Nice jeans, but too tight in the thighs
Size: 31W x 28L, Color: Light Wash
I liked these jeans overall — good quality and the stretch feels nice — but they were a little too tight in the thighs for me. If you’ve got more athletic legs, you might want to size up or try a different fit.

Same sizes but different fits
Color: Light Green-new, Size: 32W x 32L
Great color and good fit. Feels more like a Jean. I bought two pair-exact same size. 32w x 32 length. Light green was exactly what I wanted. The maroon red was more like a jegging than jeans. Not what I wanted. Supposedly same style - so just be aware fits were completely different!
