As war breaks out in Britain, the Cazalet family wonders if their lives will ever return to normal. Beautifully and poignantly told, Marking Time is the second novel in Elizabeth Jane Howard's landmark Cazalet Chronicles.

Home Place, Sussex, 1939. As the shadows of the Second World War roll in, banishing the sunlit days of childish games and trips to the coast, a new generation of Cazalets take up the family's story.

Louise, who dreams of becoming a great actress, finds herself facing the harsh reality that her parents have their own lives with secrets, passions and yearnings. Clary, an aspiring writer, learns that her beloved father is now missing somewhere on the shores of France. And sensitive, imaginative Polly feels stuck - stuck without a vocation, stuck without information about her mother's illness, stuck without anything except her nightmares about the war...

Continue Elizabeth Jane Howard's bestselling and enduring Cazalet Chronicles with Confusion, Casting Off, and All Change.

Elizabeth Jane Howard

Elizabeth Jane Howard, CBE, was an English novelist. She was an actress and a model before becoming a novelist. In 1951, she won the John Llewellyn Rhys Prize for her first novel, The Beautiful Visit.

Six further novels followed, before she embarked on her best known work The Cazalet Chronicles, a four novel family saga set in wartime Britain.

The Light Years, Marking Time, Confusion, and Casting Off were serialised by Cinema Verity for BBC television as The Cazalets. She has also written a book of short stories, Mr Wrong, and edited two anthologies.

Her last novel in The Cazalet Chronicles series, All Change, was published in November 2013.
