Miss Peabody’s Inheritance
Elizabeth Jolley
Miss Peabody, a lonely spinster in London, writes a fan letter to Diana Hopewell, an Australian novelist. In reply, Hopewell sends installments of her novel-in-progress, the zany adventures of a trio of gently lesbian ladies, a headmistress and two companions, touring Europe with a hapless student. With each mail delivery, Miss Peabody’s involvement with the novelist and her characters intensifies until fantasy and reality poignantly merge. Wonderful …gives great pleasure (New York Times Book Review).
