Customer Reviews

This is classic Alice Thomas Ellis

As an avid reader of her work I always look for her latest when visiting my homeland of England. Imagine my surprise therefore to find this collection of short stories published in 1994 that I had previously been unaware of. In this collection she continues to examine the role of the post feminist woman in British society in short crafted vignettes of life. It is however her sharp sense of humor and wicked observations of the absurdities of life that I find most appealing.Although listed as out of print I found new paperback copies at all of the London bookstores which suggested a reprinting that hopefully will soon be available here in the US. When it is I highly recommend it.
