The 'People in Glass Houses' work for an American-based concern
devoted to 'inflicting improvement' the world over. Amongst them
are sloppy but erudite Algie Wyatt, Swoboda, a Slav DP, who finally
rebels against a daily inflow of documentation; modest
Ashmole-Brown, whose surprise best-seller unseats Sadie Graine, the
all-time corridor fixer; Jaspersen, who falls in and out of love
with the Organization; and Clelia Kinslake, who meets the most
critical non-crisis of her career in Crete. Shirley Hazzard's eight
dazzling stories are linked by a scorching contempt for the
Organization.
