À propos de ce contenu audio
'I'm a huge fan of Barbara Pym' Richard Osman
'I'd sooner read a new Barbara Pym than a new Jane Austen' Philip Larkin
When Barbara Pym died in 1980, she left a considerable amount of unpublished material. This volume contains an early novel, Civil to Strangers, three novellas and an autobiographical essay, 'Finding a Voice', Pym's only written comment on her writing career.
In Civil to Strangers, the lives of a young couple, Cassandra Marsh-Gibbon and her self-absorbed writer husband Adam, are thrown into upheaval when a mysterious Hungarian arrives in their village.
'A sublime social comedy . . . It exists inside the Pym Eden of safety, silliness and a kind of subdued hilarity. Look out for one of her best curates - the starchy, spinster-dodging Mr Paladin - and a typically deliciously insensitive vicar' KATE SAUNDERS, THE TIMES
'Brilliant, hilarious, poignant and so very, very English' TIME©1987 The Beneficiaries of Barbara Pym
