Product Description
In these three novels, published together in England for the first time, Storm Jameson looks at three women, their relationships to men, and to other women. Beautiful Victoria Form, seen through the eyes of her childhood friend Fanny, is a famous novelist and relentless seductress: her favourite pastime is to ensnare men - and betray women. Emily Lambton is the daughter of Sir John, owner of a shipping line. She makes a brilliant marriage to Lord Holt but falls in love with a socialist clerk, Evan - a love that is to consume her life. Lastly we meet a nameless middle-aged woman: one of the so many who have lived off men all their lives. Alone now in a shabby bedsitter, her looks gone, she reaps the bitter rewards allotted in that ancient battle between the sexes.
