Binding tight. From the DJ flap - Pomp and Circumstance, the first novel by the one and only Noel Coward, is a delicious comedy filled with preposterous dialogue and ridiculous situations - a wonderfully witty story about manners and mores on a tropical island, told from the disarming viewpoint of an amusing woman. The lifelike characters and the well constructed plot will soon convince the reader that Mr. Coward is not only a brilliant playwright and composer, but a first-rate novelists as well.
