The Most Fetching Woman in London, Caleb Mortimer , single work prose humour
Journalist Caleb Mortimer recounts his experience of meeting 'the most fetching woman in London', English writer, Ethel Mannin (1900-1984). Mortimer humorously describes his anticipation, and subsequent preparation, that preceded his arranged meeting with the authoress. Describing his encounter with Mannin, Mortimer writes that he 'beheld a lady with yellow hair and cerulean draperies', whose 'actual Cockney prettiness' was 'incompatible' with the 'Mona Lisa loveliness' of her portrait.
