 Crampton Hodnet
This is a wonderfully accomplished farce beginning with the joke of using her own name in the title (Barbara Mary Crampton Pym). From that point she sails off into a wickedly comedic farce, focusing- in recognizingly "Pym" fashion- on the unsuitable romantic entanglements of a curate and a pretty young girl, both of whom live in the same rooming house, and a starry-eyed university professor and his female student. |

 Charles Bukowski - The Rooming House Madrigals Poems deal with rejection, history, barbershops, friendship, death, longing, loneliness, and disappointment. This is the Bukowski of 1946-1966. The poet of gritty backwaters of great faceless cities, rainy bus stations and flophouse one-night stands; also of the moon shining in the gutter, and of the morning-after joys of making love in the sun.
