Praise for Angela Thirkwell:
‘Charming, very funny indeed. Angela Thirkell is perhaps the most Pym-like of any twentieth-century author, after Pym herself’ - Alexander McCall Smith ‘With touches of Nancy Mitford, Barbara Pym and PG Wodehouse, Angela Thirkell's sparkling prose recounts misunderstandings and mishaps in a particularly English way.’ - Spectator ‘You read her, laughing, and want to do your best to protect her characters from any reality but their own.’ - New York Times Angela Thirkell (1890-1961) wrote many works of fiction and non-fiction, including twenty-nine Barsetshire novels, which won her great popularity and acclaim. The first of these, High Rising, was published in 1933. Her relatives included Edward Burne-Jones, Rudyard Kipling and Stanley Baldwin, and her godfather was J M Barrie. She was twice married and had four children."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
