Dame Margaret Drabble, Lady Holroyd is an English biographer, novelist and short story writer. She has won many awards for her writing, including the James Tait Black Memorial Prize for 'Jerusalem the Golden'. Her writing often provides ruminations about modern Britain and in-depth psychological studies of her characters.

This set includes three of her novels:

The Realms of Gold (1975) explores the mid-life experiences of anthropologist Frances Wingate and her affair with Karel Schmidt.

The Ice Age (1977) follows the former BBC producer Anthony Keating as he experiences the ups and downs of the 1960s and 1970s, including the property crisis in Britain during that period.

The Middle Ground (1980) explores British urban life through the eyes of middle-aged journalist Kate Armstrong.
