Description
This book follows the fortunes of two innocents abroad: Fanny Frisbee of New York, unhappily married to the dissolute Marquis de Malrive, scion of a great house of the Faubourg St. Germain, and John Durham, her childhood friend, who arrives in Paris intent on persuading Fanny to divorce her husband and marry him instead. It is a scintillating picture of American and French culture at the turn of the century and a subtle investigation of the role of women in the prevailing social hierarchy. Also included are the novellas “Sanctuary” (1903) and “Bunner Sisters” (1906).
