Description
Excellent Women is a humorous and touching novel about Mildred Lathbury, a woman who is often taken for granted. She is a godsend, capable of dealing with most of the stock situations or even the great moments of life. When her glamorous new neighbours, the Napiers, face a marital crisis, Mildred finds herself drawn to the dashing young Rockingham Napier.
This is Barbara Pym's world at its funniest and most touching, a world where the heartbreaking silliness of everyday life is on full display. With its endearingly amusing characters and witty dialogue, Excellent Women is a novel that will leave you smiling and perhaps even a little wiser.
