On a rainy Sunday in January, the recently widowed Mrs. Palfrey arrives at the Claremont Hotel where she will spend her remaining days. Her fellow residents are magnificently eccentric and endlessly curious, living off crumbs of affection and snippets of gossip. Together, upper lips stiffened, they fight off their twin enemies--boredom and the Grim Reaper. Then one day Mrs. Palfrey strikes up an unexpected friendship with Ludo, a handsome young writer, and learns that even the old can fall in love.

評分(1971) R4 read by Eleanor Bron. 希望能用錢買斷親情,然後在感情上各找齣路
評分這個故事裏,死亡是唯一的,可以預見的結局,可是Elizabeth Taylor太狠毒,戲裏戲外不留一點留白給人追憶,滿大廳的人watched the Deaths column of the Daily Telegraph;but no notice of Mrs.Palfrey's death appeared.沒有迴音甚至灰燼,隻有靜默。Ludo病房裏念詩,乃是挽歌,亦是終麯。
