Items related to Proto Zoë
Zoe's zig-zag progress from childhood to maturity is traced through these 11 episodes, including that with instructive Mr Friedmann, and her sewing lesson with grandmother. These show her to be gauche, naive, untutored and inexperienced, but not innocent. By the author of "Strange Loop".

Review:
'Layered with delicious ambiguities, memorable characters and, most of all, the author's eye for the ironic and unlikely' Daily Telegraph 'These hard-edged stories raise the amusing dinner party anecdote to an art form. They are short, tricky, witty and apposite' Independent 'The entertainment value lies in Prantera's immaculate understatement ... Each episode has a polished ambivalence and a dry observation of the nearness of tragedy and loss' Observer 'Reaching the end of this collection one cannot help being a little disappointed that the pleasure is over so soon' TLS
