Beautifully packaged reissue of one of Muriel Spark’s best loved novels, The Girls of Slender Means.
In the May of Teck Club, the young lady residents do their best to act as if the war never happened. They practice elocution, and jostle one another over suitors and a single Schiaparelli gown. But behind the girls’ giddy literary and amorous peregrinations they hide some tragically painful secrets and wounds.
