    Extractions: St. Hilda's College, Oxford, OX4 1DY. Most of the thirteen papers in this volume were originally presented at meetings or conferences of the Barbara Pym Society, a very active organisation based at St. Hilda's College, Oxford. They are preceded by an amusing foreword by James Runcie, writer and film-maker and son of a former Archbishop of Canterbury. In the first paper, the Rev. David Cockerell considers the relevance of the church of Barbara Pym to the world and church of today. He states that probably few English novelists of the post-war period have described the church so sympathetically and humourously. Her churches are generally Anglo-Catholic, hence the title of the book, and the next contribution, by Robert Smith, explores London churches with Barbara Pym. Surprisingly the twelve churches described do not include that beacon of Anglo-Catholicism, All Saints, Margaret Street. There are two contributions by Kate Charles. First, a mini-history of Anglo-Catholicism (very mini, consisting of two pages only), which includes an amusing 'Anglo-Catholic A-Z' (for example, B is for Biretta, G is for Going over to Rome, H is for High Mass/Low Mass, V is for Vestments). In the second ('

    Extractions: Pym, of a younger generation, first read ICB when she was a student at Oxford in the Thirties, and was not impressed. As an undergraduate she made the acquaintance of Robert Liddell , always known to her as 'Jock'. At first she admired him from a distance, as she did his friend Henry Harvey - the two men shared digs. Later she had an affair of sorts with Henry: he was less interested than she was. When he left Oxford both Pym and Liddell missed his company. Their friendship prospered and they remained close, at least by correspondence for the rest of her life. He encouraged her writing, and later advised her about several of her books and sought her opinion on his own manuscripts. Liddell told Pym that he regarded her as the finest comic writer of the century after Ivy Compton-Burnett. In the early years of their correspondence they often affected Miss ICB's style, writing parodies to describe their activities to each other. By this time Liddell had converted Barbara Pym to the ICB novels. The influence shows in her own fiction, and has been noted by critics. As early as the thirties she was using 'very Compton-Burnett' in her diaries to describe people and dialogue she meets, and several times mentions what a powerful influence ICB has on writers who read her.

64. Clew's Reviews: A Book Log: Crampton Hodnet, Barbara Pym

    Extractions: Main My Life in Orange Tim Guest This is much like The Other Side of the Fire , but longer and a touch more cruel and more constantly funny. The funniest bit is probably the tutor pitching himself into an affair with a student, mostly out of bored vanity, and then being horrified at the thought that divorce would make him so uncomfortable; he doesn't see that she isn't interested in anything but talk: She knew exactly how she ought to feel, for she was well read in our greater and lesser English poets, but the unfortunate fact was that she did not really like being kissed at all. The introduction is written by Hazel Holt . Now I see why Holt's cosy mysteries are unsatisfying; her sees-all character is nice where she should be kind. The classic characters see the foibles of their neighbors and are kinder because of it, avoiding the cruelties that a true innocent would say unknowingly. Anthony Trollope isn't cruel even when he's dissecting a really hopeless character, as in Cousin Henry . I wonder how. I wonder why. ISBN: 0452258162 So wrote clew in Fiction (20th c.)
