Review:
"The most underrated novelist of the century . . . The subtlest of her books--the sparkle on first acquaintance has been succeeded by the deeper brilliance of established art." --Philip Larkin "[Pym] makes me smile, laugh out loud, consider my own foibles and fantasies, and above all, suffer real regret when I reach the final page. Of how many authors can you honestly say that?" --Mavis Cheek "Barbara Pym is the rarest of treasures." --Anne Tyler "My favorite writer . . . I pick up her books with joy, as though I were meeting an old, dear friend who comforts me, extends my vision and makes me roar with laughter." --Jilly Cooper
