This is a book mostly people would have read as children or young adults. The book spans the life of a girl for about 6 or seven months. Her nature, life in India, her demotion as an orphan and her subsequent travel to UK. The people she meets the house and its locked up garden, its affect on her and subsequently on the people she interacts with forms the main 'skeleton of the story. The hero of the story is actually the garden, with good supporting parts played by the moor and the nature around it. The people are seen as those affected by these and the girl.
Very good reading. It catches speed and gives a feel good about feeling about life in general. a collector.
