Pym didn't get the following or acclaim in her lifetime, alas, that she's enjoyed since. I, and others I know, re-read her books. She writes of a world, long gone (perhaps for the best!) of women alone who toil at unappreciated jobs as aides to professors or writers, doing indexing or proofreading, or keeping the office going, while they hope for romance and sometimes find it, but more often, they recognize the limitations of men, and decide their single life has many compensations. Her books are full of wry moments, dry humor. It's hard to describe as she was so original. This is one of her best.
