Barbara Pym (1913-1980) was a British novelist best known for her series of satirical novels on English middle-class society. A graduate of St Hilda's College, Oxford, Pym published the first of her nine novels, _Some Tame Gazelle_ , in 1950, followed by five more books. Despite this early success and continuing popularity, Pym went unpublished from 1963 to 1977. Her work was rediscovered after a famous article in the _Times Literary Supplement_ in which two prominent names, Lord David Cecil and Philip Larkin, nominated Pym as the most underrated writer of the century. Her comeback novel, _Quartet in Autumn_ , was nominated for the Booker Prize.
