About the book

Arnold Bennett's The Old Wives' Tale follows the lives of two sisters, Constance and Sophia Baines, from youth into old age. Their lives take very different paths, one remaining in provincial England while the other experiences a more adventurous existence abroad. Bennett uses their parallel stories to explore time, family, social change and the quiet transformations that shape ordinary lives.
