Description
A witty and elegant comedy of manners from Barbara Pym, author of Quartet in Autumn, Jane and Prudence, and Excellent Women. In An Unsuitable Attachment, Pym explores the complexities of relationships and social expectations through the story of a young woman's unexpected connection with her new library assistant. The arrival of Rupert Stonebird, a bachelor in the neighbourhood, sets off a flurry of matchmaking attempts among the local community. However, one woman finds herself drawn to someone who defies convention - John, a man with a questionable past and limited means. As their relationship deepens, Pym's witty prose and insightful observations on human nature shine through. First published in 1982, An Unsuitable Attachment is a charming and humorous novel that showcases Pym's unique voice and skill as a writer of comedic fiction.
