Poor Cow: A Virago Modern Classic: Virago Modern Classics

Autor Nell Dunn
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 ian 2026
THE BESTSELLLING CLASSIC OF SIXTIES LONDON

'Touching, truthful and fresh - a tour de force' MARGARET DRABBLE
'Hilarious, heartbreaking' PARIS REVIEW
'Her art is ignited by voice' ALI SMITH, GUARDIAN
'Exuberantly alive' SUNDAY TIMES

To think when I was a kid I planned to conquer the world and if anyone saw me now they'd say, 'She's had a rough night, poor cow.'

Joy - twenty-one, bleach-blonde, a head full of dreams - walks down Fulham Broadway in a maternity dress and high suede shoes, carrying her week-old baby. Her husband Tom is a thief and on the proceeds of a job they move to a luxury flat in Ruislip, all new lino and fitted carpets. Then Tom is sent to prison, leaving Joy to move in with Auntie Emm - and to grapple with motherhood, modelling and unreliable men. Exuberant, earthy and tender, Poor Cow was a revelatory portrait of sixties London life.

Recenzii

Her art is ignited by voice, especially by voice more usually given no societal, literary or aesthetic power or space but whose authority, as you hear it, is unquestionable
It was Nell's interest in the women of the working class that made her work truly radical
Touching, truthful and fresh . . . written with an unselfconscious elegance that conceals its craft . . . A tour de force
Nell Dunn's hilarious, heartbreaking Poor Cow, about a single mother in sixties London
INTRODUCED BY MARGARET DRABBLE

To think when I was a kid I planned to conquer the world and if anyone saw me now they'd say, 'She's had a rough night, poor cow.'

Joy - twenty-one, bleach-blonde, her head full of dreams - walks down Fulham Broadway in a maternity dress and high suede shoes, carrying her week-old baby. Her husband Tom is a thief, and flush from the proceeds of a job they move to a flat in Ruislip, all new lino and fitted carpets. But when Tom is sent to prison, Joy is forced to leave her suburban dream and move in with Auntie Emm - and to grapple with motherhood, modelling and unreliable men. Exuberant, earthy and heartbreaking, Poor Cow is a revelatory portrait of sixties London life.
