An Academic Question
by Barbara Pym
I always enjoy Barbara Pym's work; this was a re-read for me and this time it felt a little bleak. Caro is married, not quite happily, to a professor at a provincial university in England. She has a small daughter, an au pair, and seems to be very much at a loose end much of the time. She seems to drift along and not find much meaning in anything. The understated social comedy is what keeps me coming back to Barbara Pym books; I was definitely not feeling it this time.
