Product Description

From Amazon.com

Unsure of her impending marriage, Caroline Cliburn travels to Scotland with her younger brother Jody in tow to rethink her feelings and investigate her older brother's disappearance. An inexperienced driver, Caroline crashes during an unexpected snowstorm. Virtually uninjured from the accident, Caroline and Jody walk to the nearest home, which happens to be the estate of Oliver Cairney, a wealthy London businessman who is in town taking care of his deceased brother's affairs. Oliver graciously asks the two to spend the night, and it is obvious from the start that the wealthy Londoner has eyes for Caroline. But when a neighbor thwarts any romance between the two by informing Caroline that Oliver is practically engaged, Caroline and Jody leave hastily, without even saying goodbye. But love always finds a way, and Caroline's sudden illness throws the two would-be lovers together once more.

At only 245 pages, Snow in April may be the perfect starting point for those readers intimated by Pilcher's lengthier prose. Even in this early work, it is easy to see why she has become a much-loved storyteller in her native Scotland and throughout the world. Snow in April is a sweet, touching read, sure to be enjoyed by connoisseurs of love stories everywhere. --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.



From AudioFile

Caroline is going to marry, and her little brother Jody, 11 years old, begs her to take him to their older brother, who is in Scotland. They leave a springtime London to find a wintry Scotland and a frosty Scot. Hannah Gordon is a joy to listen to, a consummate actress, but the story blithers along, drowning in descriptive passages. When dialogue appears, Gordon springs forth in excellence. Happily, there's an abridged version of this. But what a shame to miss this reader. S.B.S.

5.0étoiles sur 5 A Short and Sweet Novel-Pilcher is Always Great!, Sep 26 2002
Par J. Kirkman "book jen" (St. Petersburg, FL United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This short and sweet novel of Pilcher is as usual, very well written. Caroline, persuaded by her brother Jody at the beginning of the book, decides to take a trip to Scotland to see their brother Angus, of whom they haven't seen for years. So when a neighbor friend agrees to let Caroline use his old car to travel, they set off for this trip.

What happens as snow falls in April over in Scotland, is the two get stuck in snow, leaving them stranded, but not for long. They are almost to their destination when they meet a kindly gentleman, Oliver Cairney, who provides shelter and food for Caroline and Jody.

Sparks fly between and Oliver and Caroline, but she is engaged to be married soon. The story has a very interesting turn out in the end.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Enjoyed reading this!, Nov. 9 2000
Par Mary A. Faderan "garden girl" (West Lafayette, IN USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This is a quintessential Rosamunde Pilcher novel. Her characters are almost subdued, a little more like ordinary mortals with their rather unadorned personalities, which give them (esp the major characters) something that attracts kinship with the reader. The story is about how life for anyone has an unexpected whimsy, and finding love in the unlikeliest of places and in the rather unimagined person. Rosamunde Pilcher has mastered the craft of how to make love seem always sweet and precious, in this modern day where everyone is all eager to jump under the covers. Characters in this novel are unpunctuated, yet with all their loose-ended personalities, one sees a possibility that real love is able to blossom despite all kinds of improbabilities. This is a real "must read" for those of us hopelessly in love with love!

Par Un client
I loved this book, as I have the other 4 Pilcher books that I have read. Pilcher takes you into her world, and you feel the vulnerability, the joy, pain, and everything in between of her characters in this book. Her descriptions of the countryside are superb.
