The adventures of Miss Barbara Pym : a biography / Paula Byrne.

Byrne, Paula, (author.).

Summary:

Renowned biographer and author Paula Byrne brings Barbara Pym back to centre stage as one of the wittiest and greatest English novelists: a generous, shrewdly perceptive writer and a brave woman, who only in the last years of her life was suddenly recognized for her genius. Brimming with new extracts from Pym's diaries, letters and novels, this book is a joyous introduction to a woman who was herself the very best of company.
