'Deeply moving and authentic, and compulsive reading[Marjorie's story] has the full gloom of Tottenham Court Road Underground Station and the precariousness of being alive.' John Betjeman 'A dancing, easyish, drinking lady whose fate it was never quite to get through ... [Reading Marjorie is] 'like eating meringues sprayed with "Evening in Paris".' Ronald Blythe
