Barbara Pym worked as an editor at the International African Institute from the late 1940s to early 1970s, and recorded in her diary many of the editorial methods and problems she there encountered. She also attributed these to various characters in her gently satirical novels. This article describes her factual and fictional treatment of such matters as dealing with contributors, obtaining book reviews, proofreading, indexing, and offprints during that period
