When a young family inherit a remote mountain-side cottage in north Wales, giving them the chance to change the course of their lives and start over, the one condition of the will seems strange but harmless. They are to care for a cormorant until the end of its life.
The Equestrienne is a poetic, caustic coming-of-age novel about the\r\ndesire of one young girl to realise her dreams before and after Velvet\r\nRevolution; it is a celebration of friendship between women and also\r\na bitter acknowledgement that greed and the desire for power can\r\ndestroy any relationship.
