From the renowned author of THE PRIME OF MISS JEAN BRODIE comes a tragic and rapier-witted portrait of a London ladies' hostel just emerging from the shadow of World War II. In 1945 the lady inhabitants do their best to act as if the world were back to normal, but the novel's harrowing ending reveals that the women's giddy literary and amorous peregrinations are hiding some tragically painful war wounds.
Chosen by Anthony Burgess as one of the Best Modern Novels in the Sunday Times of London, The Girls of Slender Means is a taut and eerily perfect novel by an author The New York Times has called one of this century's finest creators of comic-metaphysical entertainment.
