Summary
Summary
What happens when a successful marriage brings two people together — but their hearts and minds don’t always speak the same language?
Reginald Wellard is a country gentleman with a talent for gardening, a fondness for his bees, and an unexpected gift for writing. When his first novel becomes a remarkable success, he discovers that fame, fortune, and literary acclaim can be far more complicated than he ever imagined.
His beautiful young wife, Sylvia, adores him. Yet beneath their affectionate domestic life lies a subtle mystery: how well can two people truly know one another, even when they are deeply in
love?
With his trademark wit, sparkling observations, and tender understanding of human nature, A. A. Milne explores the delicate balance between love and admiration, intellect and beauty, intimacy and
independence.
First published in 1931, Two People is a charming and perceptive novel about marriage, the private worlds we inhabit, and the surprising distances that can exist between those closest to us.
Witty, warm, and quietly moving, this is a delightful rediscovery from the beloved author of Winnie-the-Pooh.

Author Bio: A. A. Milne
Alan Alexander Milne (1882–1956) was the son of a Scottish schoolmaster. Milne won a scholarship to Westminster School and later read mathematics at Cambridge. His real interest was in lighthearted writing; he edited the undergraduate magazine Granta and at twenty-four he became assistant editor of Punch. After serving as a signals officer in World War I he won additional acclaim as a playwright. His great success, however, came as a writer of children’s literature after publishing a series of verses about his young son Christopher Robin (When We Were Very Young and Now We Are Six). Following the acclaim received for the Winnie-the-Pooh books, Milne published several novels as well as an autobiography, It’s Too Late Now (1939).
