Description
A darkly comic novel set against the backdrop of 1930s London, Party Going is Henry Green's exploration of the secrets and desires that bind its characters together. Stranded in a train station and hotel, a group of young people wait for a train to the Continent, where their wealthy friend Max is hosting a party. As they navigate the impenetrable fog that has brought the city to a standstill, Green's characters engage in a complex dance of relationships and desires. With wit and subtlety, he exposes the tensions and contradictions that underpin their lives, revealing a world of anxiety and uncertainty. Published in 1939, Party Going is a modernist masterpiece that continues to resonate with readers today.
