Marjorie Barnard THE Persimmon Tree

Barnard, Marjorie. The Persimmon Tree and Other Stories. New York, N.Y., U.S.A.: Penguin, November 4, 198.
This volume shows the quality constraints war-time placed on local publishi ng efforts. This was Barnard's only collection of short stories to appear i n her lifetime and it represents some of her best work. The title story, 'T he Persimmon Tree', remains one of the most frequently anthologised short s tories of the period. A number of stories in the collection deal with the d ramas of marital infidelity, love triangles and the challenges facing women endeavouring to do 'the right thing'. Several of these stories reflect asp ects of Barnard's own secret love affair with fellow-writer,.

Paperback, Very Good.
