Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Ivy Compton-Burnett's second novel introduces a distinctive dialogue-heavy style that critiques Victorian institutions and explores themes of masculine authority and female subservience. Set in a boys' preparatory school post-World War I, the narrative loosely revolves around the definition of success through novel authorship. Despite its brevity, the work is a satirical character study that showcases the author's acerbic wit and has been hailed as a unique literary achievement, described as "a work of genius."
