Description

The Girls of Slender Means by Muriel Spark

Inspired by Spark’s life during the Second World War, this exceptionally well-crafted, ironic and deeply funny novel effortlessly captures the austere mood of post-war London. ‘Long ago in 1945 all the nice people in England were poor, allowing for exceptions.’ The war is over, but London has yet to recover. Amid the bombed-out ruins of Kensington stands the May of Teck Club, founded for the Pecuniary Convenience and Social Protection of Ladies of Slender Means below the age of Thirty Years . In and out of the club run the girls, their heads full of love and money , bartering clothing coupons for margarine and sharing the same Schiaparelli dress. But a tragic and violent accident will expose the savagery beneath the surface of their genteel existence.
