Mr. Mac and me by Esther Freud

[Read, Review & Win]

The individuals in this delightful novel are fictional, except for Scottish Art Nouveau architect, Charles Rennie Mackintosh and artist wife, Margaret Mackintosh. Set in rural Suffolk during World War I, a friendship between them and young Thomas Maggs develops. Published amongst last year's plethora of of titles set in that era, this is a pearl. A brilliance shines from the author's description of characters and clever story.
