What is The Scent of Water about?
Goudge's singular gift is the depth and insight she brings to her characters. Mary Lindsay is a born and bred Londoner who has enjoyed her city lifea prestigious job, and friends with whom she takes in the city pleasures of theatre, art, and music. But fleeting memories of a childhood visit to her father's cousin out in the country are revived with the news that the woman has willed her home, the Laurels, to Mary. She makes an uncharacteristically sudden and life-changing decision to leave London for the country. The gradual unfolding of her understanding of herself, of the now-deceased woman who has bequeathed her home to Mary, and of the people of Appleshaw, are all woven together in a most memorable story of love's redemptive power.
