Dulcie Mainwaring es una mujer de 31 años que, tras romper su compromiso, decide asistir a una conferencia académica para distraerse. En este entorno, se encuentra con una serie de personajes peculiares, entre ellos la arrogante Viola y el atractivo Aylwin Forbes, director de una revista, quienes terminarán desempeñando un papel fundamental en su vida. Escrita con el característico estilo de Barbara Pym, esta novela destaca por su capacidad para transformar lo cotidiano en algo fascinante. Con una mezcla de humor británico sutil y una observación aguda de las banalidades de la vida, la obra ofrece una mirada irónica y encantadora sobre las relaciones humanas y las pequeñas tragedias del día a día.
Barbara Mary Crampton Pym was an English novelist. In the 1950s, she published a series of social comedies, of which the best known are Excellent Women (1952) and A Glass of Blessings (1958). After a period of rejection by publishers, her career was revived in 1977 when the critic Lord David Cecil and the poet Philip Larkin nominated her as the most underrated writer of the previous 75 years. Her novel Quartet in Autumn (1977) was nominated for the Booker Prize that year, and she was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature.
