3.0

Taylor writes an engaging biography of four young women involved in the professional and social circle of Cyrill Connolly and the Horizon literary magazine during and after the Second World War. The women themselves are fascinating and it's an illuminating view of a period of literary history I knew little about but there's perhaps an essay's worth of writing here spread out over a book.
