The Peppermint Pig

Nina Bawden

Johnnie was only the runt of the litter, a little peppermint pig. He'd cost Mother a shilling, but somehow his great naughtiness and cleverness kept Poll and Theo cheerful, even though it was one of the most difficult years of their lives.

Circles of Deceit

Nina Bawden

Major figures in the life of the narrator, a painter who specializes as a copyist, are Clio, his child-bride, Helen, his first wife, and his mother Maisie. They confound lies and the truth in a subtle weave, while the silent agony of the painter’s son is a reflection on the busy web of deception.
