Meet a delightfully old-fashioned heroine in My Mrs. Brown…Even if you find Mrs. Brown anachronistic, with a gentle conservatism of an age long-gone, you come to like and respect her. Then, you come to love her…Goodness really is its own reward, says Norwich’s gentle-hearted book. Better yet, sometimes goodness is rewarded.

What remains a mystery until the very end of the novel is the occasion for which she needs such a thing.... Like its main character, appealing, sweet, old-fashioned—and, at heart, very sad.
