A Summer Treat


Excellent Women by Babara Pym
How can a whole chapter about a jumble sale be engrossing, funny and poignant, leave it to Barbara Pym to describe. Set in post war England it tells the everyday story of Mildred, who is so endearing I felt really sad the book had to end. A very gentle yet satisfying read.
