Jane Cleveland and Prudence Bates were close friends at Oxford University, but now live very different lives. Forty-one-year-old Jane lives in the country, is married to a vicar, has a daughter she adores, and lives a very proper life in a very proper English parish. Prudence, a year shy of 30, lives in London, has an office job, and is self-sufficient and fiercely independent - until Jane decides her friend should be married. Jane has the perfect husband in mind for her former pupil: a widower named Fabian Driver.

Wonderful book, but the narrator is just not good, especially if you come from Excellent Women. I really hope they rerecord Pym's works with someone better - her work deserves the best!
I ended up getting a physical copy of this book instead, but I did listen to a bit of this on fastforward. Unfortunately the enunciation isn't good enough to understand past 1.75 or so, but I do think increasing speed improves things immensely.
The book itself is immensely beautiful and very witty.
