Synopsis

Latchkey Ladies (1921) was the first novel by the Canadian author Marjorie Grant Cook (1882-1965), and is drawn from her life in London as a single working woman. She was a prolific and influential reviewer for the Times Literary Supplement, and published seven novels. She was close friends with Rose Macaulay, whose own secret affair with a married man may have provided the background for Anne Carey’s story. The Introduction is by Sarah LeFanu, author of Rose Macaulay (29003), and Dreaming of Rose. A Biographer’s Journal (2021).
