Percival Everett: The Trees

“Everybody talks about genocides around the world, but when the killing is slow and spread over a hundred years, no one notices. Where there are no mass graves, no one notices. American outrage is always for show. It has a shelf life. If that Griffin book had been Lynched Like Me, America might have looked […]

Barbara Pym: No Fond Return of Love

‘I can’t think why you’re so inquisitive. It isn’t as if you’d even met Neville Forbes.’‘No, but it’s like a kind of game,’ said Dulcie. It seemed – though she did not say this to Viola – so much safer and more comfortable to live in the lives of other people – to observe their […]

Barbara Pym: Jane and Prudence | Naistenviikkohaaste 2020

Jane realized from Nicholas’s laugh and the uncomfortable silence that followed that she ought not to have spoken. ‘I wonder whether a cup of tea would help us to see things in better perspective,’ she said quickly. ‘I will just go and see Mrs Glaze about it,’ she added, hurrying from the room.‘A cup of […]
