In a small white flat in Knightsbridge, clever Edith Ottley humours her vain, fussy husband Bruce, who lives in dread of being late at the office. Around them circle the beautiful Hyacinth, the young man she adores, his worldly uncle, and a crowd of friends whose affections never quite land where they should.
Light, sparkling comedy of manners by the woman Oscar Wilde called the Sphinx, the first of her Ottley novels. Download the free EPUB.
