批評家のレビュー
"Molly Keane is a mistress of wicked comedy." (Vogue)
"I really wish I had written this book. It's a tragi-comedy set in Ireland after the First World War. A real work of craftsmanship." (Hilary Mantel)
"I have read and re-read Molly Keane more, I think, than any other writer. Nobody else can touch her as a satirist, tragedian and dissector of human behaviour. I love all her books, but Good Behaviour and Loving and Giving are the ones I return to most." (Maggie O'Farrell)
あらすじ・解説
A BBC Two Between the Covers Book Club pick (Booker Prize Gems)
"I do know how to behave - believe me, because I know. I have always known...."
Behind the gates of Temple Alice, the aristocratic Anglo-Irish St Charles family sinks into a state of decaying grace. To Aroon St Charles, large and unlovely daughter of the house, the fierce forces of sex, money, jealousy and love seem locked out by the ritual patterns of good behaviour. But crumbling codes of conduct cannot hope to save the members of the St Charles family from their own unruly and inadmissible desires.
This elegant and allusive novel established Molly Keane as the natural successor to Jean Rhys.
