Book Summary
"I told Helen my story and she went home and cried" begins Our Spoons Came from
Woolworths. But Barbara Comyns's beguiling novel is far from maudlin, despite
the ostensibly harrowing ordeals its heroine endures. Sophia is twenty-one when
she marries fellow artist Charles, and she seems to have nearly as much
affection for her pet newt as she does for her husband. Her housekeeping
knowledge is lacking (everything she cooks tastes of soap) and she attributes
her morning sickness to a bad batch of strawberries. England is in the middle of
the Great Depression, and in any case, the money Sophia earns at her occasional
modeling gigs
