Anthony Burgess recommends
In a Cafe (1995)
Mary Lavin
"I envy the skill of Mary Lavin. . . . In her capacity to make much out of little, to compress an entire ethos into an apparently banal situation, she reminds us what literature is all about."
The Holy Innocents (1988)
Gilbert Adair
"In the tradition of Jean Cocteau's Les Enfants Terribles, considered a masterpiece. This is a far better book."
