Summary: The Petrie family live on a farm in Anglesey, North Wales. Grandfather Taid is a Revivalist preacher; his wife, Nain, an Irish gypsy who casts spells to annoy her husband. Then there is the aunt who's sworn off men forever, and another always ready for a lark. Also an uncle married to a wife who doesn't fit in, another whose marriage will benefit the farm, and the youngest facing a darker destiny in 1940 with Great Britain at war. As eleven-year-old Nell prepares for grammar school, and the shadows of war creep closer, comedy and heartbreak mingle in this story of a most eccentric family.
