Abstract
In 1941 in rural Virginia, twelve-year-old Margaret Ann's fervent desire for a room of her own is thwarted by the arrival of her "perfect" English cousin who, having escaped the London blitz with her mother, is given the coveted room as well as all the care and attention of the rest of the family.
