Smart gets Wise

It was marketed as a novel but it's essentially a series of vignettes about life in immediately post-war London written as a memoir by a Canadian who seems identical with the protagonist of "By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept." So it's a kind of continuation of Elizabeth Smart's autobiography. It places more emphasis on women's suffering and one senses glimmerings of feminism. It also has more humor. It makes more sense if you've read Rosemary Sullivan's "By Heart" (a biography of Smart) The title is a quotation from George Barker.
