Industry Reviews "Noël Coward's first and only novel is a small gem....POMP AND CIRCUMSTANCE...is Coward to the core: a deliciously witty and ingenious entertainment that puts on full display his 'talent to amuse'...and his deep affection for distant, exotic and preferably sun-drenched parts of the world. It was received with considerable enthusiasm when it appeared, and -- this will come as no surprise to anyone who knows Coward's work -- holds up very well indeed after half a century." (10/23/2009)
