The first of four posthumously published novels, originally penned in 1963 but rejected by Pym's regular publisher Cape, and subsequently by Longman and Macmillan too. "Barbara Pym made no further move to publish this unlucky seventh novel during her lifetime, preferring to concentrate on new books, but now that there will be no more of these it is right that it should be issued. If its confidence, or over-confidence, what its own undoing, it is still richly redolent of her unique talent as it was before that confidence was so badly shaken. Her followers will need to further recommendation" - Larkin. Bloomfield B27 (for the Larkin contribution).. Book. Book Condition: Very Good. Binding: Hardcover.
