Midsummer Night in the Workhouse Category_Grey Books/Woman and Home ” said JerryPREFACE BY THE AUTHOR 392pp ISBN 9781903155820 Midsummer Night in the Workhouse contains a selection of short stories mostly written in the late 1950s. Some are set in England and describe incidents from Diana Athill's girlhood; one or two describe holidays abroad; almost all are seen from the woman's point of view. 'In this terrific collection female characters are sexually adventurous, introspective and enjoy a drink or three,' wrote the Daily Mail.
