Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. Please see any and all photos connected with this listing. No Dustjacket. A bit scuffed but all pages intact and legible. Good reading copy. Clean. No store stamps. --- --- First published in 1945 to international acclaim and winner of the Southern Authors Award, Three O'Clock Dinner is Josephine Pinckney's best-selling novel about an ill-fated marriage on the eve of World War II. This powerful tale written by a consummate Charleston insider and set in the historic city resonates with universal appeal by daring to touch on topics that had been taboo. Three O'Clock Dinner reveals how the modern world has intruded in a most unwelcome way upon the Redcliffs, a Charleston family long on pedigree but short on cash. Mortified when their son "Tat" elopes with the henna-hairied daughter of the Hessenwinkles, an especially galling bourgeois clan, the Redcliffs are determined to respond with civility. They invite their son, his new wife, and her family for Sunday dinner, served at the traditional time of three in the afternoon. Tension builds across an expanse of white damask. After mint julep aperitifs, dinner claret, and Madeira toasts, a chance remark ignites the novel's climax amid a flurry of raised voices, hurt feelings, and broken china. Their new daughter-in-law's revelation further shatters the Redcliffs' well-ordered society but opens a door to forgiveness and redemption. . .See photos for additional content. . .

Book
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Reprint. This is the most popular of Josephine Pinckney's social comedies. Known as a Charleston, South Carolina (where this novel is set) writer, she was an active part of the art and literature renaissance of that city in the inter-war years. First published in September 1945 (in compliance with war production standards), this is a fourth printing from the same month. (I told you it was popular!) Edges and endpapers are a little browned, but a very good copy indeed in a very good dust jacket which is slightly darkened on spine panel and browned on inside surface. There's a short closed tear to top of rear panel.
