Description
v.05-15. Revised for typos.
This is another great novel by the beloved author of the Diary of a Provincial Lady and over 40 novels. The Heel of Achilles describes the life and interactions of young women during World War 1 in England.
Her war work gave Delafield insights into the language and attitudes of classes other than her own, and enabled her to write this novel, which concerns a lower middle-class girl marrying 'above herself. This fairy-tale in which Cinderella does all the scheming for herself — has a unique gaiety and sparkle.
