Two Serious Ladies
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Jane Bowles (Jane Auer, 1917-73) was born in New York. As a teenager she fell into a bohemian, bisexual scene in Greenwich Village, where she met the writer and composer Paul Bowles, whom she married in 1938. Their honeymoon in Central America provided the locale and incidents for Two Serious Ladies. Jane settled in Morocco in 1948, living in a flat below Paul; although both homosexual, they were devoted companions. Her play, In The Summer House, was performed on Broadway in 1953. She wrote little more, suffering a stroke in 1957, after which her health declined. She died in Malaga, Spain, aged just fifty-six.
Readers who've not yet read Jane Bowles are almost to be envied, like people who've still to read Austen or Mansfield or Woolf, and have all the delight, the literary satisfaction, the shock of classic originality, the revelation of such good writing, still to come. -- Ali Smith
