The Children's Book

In 1990, Byatt tasted Booker success with The Possession. She hopes for an encore with this tale of 20 children, set in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. With a backdrop of a fading Victorian era and impending Edwardian age, it talks of labour movements and Suffragettes, of sons influenced by idealism and of girls who dream of freedom and the right to vote!
