    Extractions: ''The early life depicted here will be a revelation to many readers of Barbara Pym's novels-for the young student's sojourn at Oxford in the thirties seems far closer in spirit to Evelyn Waugh's 'Brideshead Revisited' than to the jumble sales of later Pym novels. At university and in the war, young Barbara is involved in a series of hopeless entanglements with older men and younger men, men too vain or too week, too selfish or too ambitious to know how to handle her. Finally after much lonely suffering she is able, through the craft she has developed, to distill her hard-won experience into art.'' Internally pristine; binding tight. B/W photos. Light shelf wear. Some edge wear to DJ. 358 pages w/ index.

44. Virtual Marginalia: Review Of Pym, Barbara
    Virtual Marginalia Book title An Academic Question Author barbara pym Posted February 04, 2002 I have enjoyed pym s work in the past.  
    http://www.papaya-palace.com/katbooks/archives/000527.html
    
    Extractions: I have enjoyed Pym's work in the past. I liked the humor in Crampton Hodnet , and I liked the characters in Excellent Women . But An Academic Question left me cold. While the other two books made me believe that Pym's reputation as a "20th century Jane Austen" was well-deserved, An Academic Question was missing the attention to detail and character that makes Pym's other works lovely. And the main characters' attitudes about adultery was puzzling they treated it as if it were not related to their daily lives or relationships. There was no outrage or anger, few tears, and while the wife did leave the husband for a while, she went back later and the incident was ignored. Perhaps one would have to be English to grok what was really going on in their relationship. I didn't get it. One curious thing I want to note: both this book and The Life and Loves of a She-Devil featured main characters who were tall women. And in both cases, the husbands of these tall women had an affair with a short woman. And as one of their responses, both tall women wondered what it would be like to look up to men rather than down on them. This was a small detail in both books, but it was oddly similar. I wonder if this is a sentiment felt by many tall women? or if the authors were trying to make a point about how the female characters view men more generally. Given my status as a short woman, I'm unsure how to answer that question.

    Virtual Marginalia Book title Crampton Hodnet + Author barbara pym Posted October 12, 2001 Crampton Hodnet is one of pym s earliest  
    http://www.papaya-palace.com/katbooks/archives/000497.html
    
    Extractions: Crampton Hodnet is one of Pym's earliest novels, although it remained unpublished until late in her career. It introduces the characters of Miss Doggett and Jessie Morrow. The novel is set in Oxford and follows the romantic asignations of several members of the small university-related community: a don who is dallying with a student (in a particularly absent-minded professor kind of way), the don's daughter, and a new curate who is young and unmarried. All the characters are shaped by their internal worlds, and all remain true to them. And, in the end, they all get what they deserve (both good and bad). Pym's psychological insight into her characters is masterful. The book is laugh-out-loud funny and is a pure indulgence. Pym is a master of portraying hidden flirtations and surpressed emotions. But this is no mere romance novel. Pym is an excellent observer of human nature, and not all the couples in the book are happy at the end. Here's a taste of Pym's prose (from p. 31):

    http://www.barbara-pym.org/bio.html
    
    Extractions: Barbara Mary Crampton Pym was destined to become a writer. She was born to Frederic and Irena Pym on June 2, 1913, in the town of Oswestry, Shropshire, on the Welsh border. Barbara's sister Hilary was born there in 1916. Since Irena Pym was assistant organist at the parish church of St. Oswald, entertaining vicars and curates became part of Pym family lifeand would later provide Barbara with some of her most enduring and endearing characters. At the age of sixteen, inspired by Aldous Huxley's Crome Yellow , Barbara attempted her first novel, "Young Men in Fancy Dress," a work that remains in the Pym Archives at the Bodleian Library at Oxford University but one that holds the seeds of her singular talent. Her dedication in the manuscript read: "To H.D.M.G., who kindly informed me that I had the makings of a style of my own." In 1931, Barbara entered St. Hilda's College at Oxford. Her notebooks and diaries, also archived at the Bodleian but with excerpts published as A Very Private Eye , document her Oxford years. It was here that Barbara read English literature, fell in love, and made life-long friends who would later influence her literary career.
