Item number: 
manning-the-doves-of-venus

Set in post-war London, Olivia Manning's The Doves of Venus follows Ellie Parsons, a young woman determined to escape the limitations of her provincial upbringing and build an independent life. As she navigates romantic entanglements, friendships and the uncertainties of adulthood, Ellie discovers the complicated realities behind love and social ambition. This insightful twentieth-century British novel combines literary fiction, psychological realism, romantic relationships and sharp social observation. With its vivid portrayal of 1950s London, The Doves of Venus explores female independence, class differences and the search for personal fulfilment.
