About the book

The Acceptance World is the third book of Anthony Powell's twelve novel sequence, A Dance to the Music of Time. Nick Jenkins continues the narration of his life and encounters with friends and acquaintances in London between 1931 and 1933. The novel's dedication "To Adrian" refers to British portrait and landscape painter Adrian Daintrey, on whom the character Barnby is based in the novel, and reinforces the wide range of artistic references found in this particular work. Reviews of the novel were generally favourable and it was made a Book Society Alternative Fiction Choice.
