“Remember what we once were and what we thought we’d be. And now this.” J.B.Priestley wrote this poignant tale of disillusionment and regret in 1937.
At once a tragedy of lost innocence and a parable for the wasted opportunities of the inter-war years, “Time and the Conways” charts the decline of a glamorous and brilliant family from post-WW1 optimism to pre-WW2 despair.
