Frances Wingate is one of England’s most renowned archaeologists, having recently unearthed a lost city in the Saharan desert. On the outside, she appears to have it all. But beneath the surface, she is struggling to deal with the demands of children and family, as well as a tumultuous, on-again, off-again romance with a married historian. Frances throws herself into work and travel, but when a tragedy forces her to return to England, to the flat countryside of her forebears, she discovers some surprising connections that offer her a chance to start again.

What do we owe to the past? What do we owe ourselves?
Frances Wingate has it all, not least a flourishing career as an archaeologist and a razor-sharp mind. But when an old affair resurfaces – after years of on-again, off-again romance – she finds herself questioning everything she ever wanted out of life.
In The Realms of Gold, Drabble crafts a luminous story of love, purpose and regret, and captures the essence of what it means to be a woman at a crossroads.
