Description

Isabelle is beautiful, immensely rich and a widow at the age of twenty-six.

In 1928 she leaves America for Cannes and Paris in search of high society - and love.

For though outwardly she has everything women dream of, inside she craves the peace of a lasting marriage.

To find the kind of love she needs Isabelle must choose between three men: her violent, fascinating lover, the aristocrat Andre de Verviers; a reserved plantation owner from the Deep South, Laurence Vernon; and the eccentric millionaire Marc Sellafranque... First published in 1936, this is Rebecca West's most popular work of fiction: at once a masterful portrayal of the brilliance and decadence of high society in the 1920s, and a poignant and compassionate portrait of one woman's life and loves.
