Forsaking All Others

Összefoglaló

In this lovely novel in verse the author of The White Cliffs tells with deep understanding the story of a man and his wife and another woman involved in a triangle of emotions. "So compact is her narrative," writes Charles Hanson Towne, "that she must make every full-fledged novelist in prose ashamed of his verbosity. Here are the sharply defined essentials of a novel. We get the lives of four people vividly and swiftly, and have glimpses of the gossiping lives of innumerable others."
