Sumérgete en la vida de Wilmet Forsyth, una mujer casada con un apuesto militar que trabaja en el Ministerio. Aparentemente satisfecha, Wilmet busca algo más en la iglesia anglo-católica, donde encuentra compañía y distracción en medio de sacerdotes y Piers Longridge. Barbara Pym retrata con maestría la sociedad inglesa convencional, explorando los anhelos y desilusiones de una vida burguesa a través de diálogos ingeniosos y una mirada llena de matices.

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.
