Excellent Women is one of Barbara Pym's richest and most amusing high comedies. Mildred Lathbury is a clergyman's daughter and a mild-mannered spinster in 1950s England. She is one of those “excellent women,” the smart, supportive, repressed women who men take for granted. As Mildred gets embroiled in the lives of her new neighbors—anthropologist Helena Napier and her handsome, dashing husband, Rocky, and Julian Malory, the vicar next door—the novel presents a series of snapshots of human life as actually, and pluckily, lived in a vanishing world of manners and repressed desires.

十分amusing,但是这种amusing和漫不经心的funny是建立在对战后社会结构,阶级形态和普通人生活的观察上的。

评分不知道以什么立场看,如果是写在女权运动之后肯定是讽刺幽默了,偏偏又不是。
