About This Item

London : Macmillan & Co., 1963. First edition. "Few people alive at the time were more delightful, more ingenious, more movingly lovely, and, as it might happen, more savage, than the girls of slender means" – "A comedy of manners and characters that at the same time resounds with profound and unsettling intimations. All Miss Spark's powers are at full strength" (Birmingham Daily Post, 24th September 1963). Crown 8vo (20cm). [vi],(184),[ii]pp. Original blue boards, lettered in gilt; a very good, sound and clean copy in the evocative autumnal dust-jacket by Harry Cowdell (1912-1987) - just lightly sunned and slightly rubbed at extremities.
