Review: An early Barbara Pym and laugh-out-loud funny - If you're new to Barbara Pym, this is a good place to start. I love this book and read it periodically... and I never fail to laugh out loud. I recently reread it and laughed even more than ever. I love all of Barbara Pym, and came to her late in life. What a shame! I could have been reading her all these years... "Good books for a bad day," she called her novels. So true.
Review: Ahhhhhh. So pleasant to trouble lightly. - Barbara Pym may not be everyone's cup of tea as she describes a past with very little excitement -- but that's the point. It's the characterizations we recognize. Timeless.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An early Barbara Pym and laugh-out-loud funny
*by A***N on December 18, 2019*

If you're new to Barbara Pym, this is a good place to start. I love this book and read it periodically... and I never fail to laugh out loud. I recently reread it and laughed even more than ever. I love all of Barbara Pym, and came to her late in life. What a shame! I could have been reading her all these years... "Good books for a bad day," she called her novels. So true.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ahhhhhh. So pleasant to trouble lightly.
*by K***D on April 2, 2025*

Barbara Pym may not be everyone's cup of tea as she describes a past with very little excitement -- but that's the point. It's the characterizations we recognize. Timeless.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Opposite of riveting.
*by D***T on July 6, 2020*

It was a slow read and yet I continued until I finished it. Driven by well done character studies.
