Amy Lee is a neglected motherless child who fantasises about becoming a writer. On a trip to Kenwood House, a stately home in Hampstead on her birthday she meets Robert Vorst, a young boy from a wealthy American family who happens to be visiting with his family. On that chilly October day in London in 1928, the chance meeting of these two young people from very different backgrounds, sets off a chain of events that will change both their lives in ways they could never have imagined. My American is unashamedly romantic. It's one of over 30 books written by Stella Gibbons, her most famous being the satire Cold Comfort Farm.

Abridged by Kate McAll and read by Jan Ravens.
