The L-shaped room

Viac o knihe

The L-Shaped Room was to be Jane's punishment - and redemption. Jane Graham is unmarried and pregnant when she is turned out of her comfortable suburban home by an angry father. She lights dejectedly on a bug-ridden room at the top of a squalid house in Fulham. She cares nothing for it, or herself, or her neighbours. But it is these neighbours, by their unaffected kindness, that draw her back into life - Toby, a Jewish writer, John, a black jazz-player, and even her tyrannical landlady. And in the L-Shaped room which she has slowly made her home Jane comes to find a new and positive faith in life.
