A final chapter in Fairacre

In the final Fairacre novel, Miss Read faces possible early retirement as her health worsens, while questions at the village school and changes in her personal life demand attention. Two men enter the picture, but the school’s new pupils—orphans living in Miss Read’s former home—bring a separate concern involving their adoptive family. The story brings together school and village life with Miss Read’s own decisions, set against Fairacre’s rural landscape.

Book overview

The last novel in the beloved Fairacre series finds Miss Read with important decisions to make. Gradually worsening health forces her to consider an early retirement. John Jenkins, a handsome newcomer, competes for her affections with the newly widowed Henry Mawne. However, Miss Read has more on her mind than men. Orphans living in her former house have bolstered the village school's roll, but these new students seem to be having problems with their adoptive family. In the midst of all this turmoil, readers can rest assured that FAREWELL TO FAIRACRE boasts all the elements they have come to love: eccentric villagers, gentle humor, and a verdant rural landscape teeming with lambs, larks, and blackthorn bushes.
