(A) Dance to the Music of Time

Anthony Powell, on WinDs

This is actually twelve books, covering the upper class British social scene from WWII to about 1970. They are ironic and subtly humorous, with a cast of thousands and many intricately woven plot lines.

Seeing that I read it to a daughter who is now 38, and it wasn't new then, you've got to be right. I loved the illustrations too.

This is a useful reference work for Patrick O'Brian fans. It contains huge numbers of medical, scientific, geographical, culinary, nautical, etc terms from the books, with some useful articles about history, organization of the navy, sailing, medicine, etc.
