Foolish Virgin, Paperback/Ida Simons

A new reissue of this rediscovered Dutch classic which drew comparisons with }The Diary Of A Young Girl{ by Anne Frank. 'Simons has an impressive lightness of touch which balances the darker theme of betrayal... An atmospheric inter-war study of family ties and the more fleeting affection of shallow alliances' Eileen Battersby, }Irish Times{. Translated by Liz Waters.
