I’m so pleased that these reprint publishers exist as I know I’d never have heard of these fantastic novels without them.As a novella, Mrs Harris Goes to Paris shows its age and has, at times, outdated and clichéd opinions about class and foreign cultures, but it is an unusual story with a spirited, humorous and likeable heroine.
