Synopsis

Book by Kert Bernice

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

“[An] engrossing, psychologically perceptive portrait...absorbing reading.”
—USA Today

“Kert’s penetrating close-up captures not only a remarkable personality but the suffocating nuances of post-Victorian matrimony....[Readers] will relish Abby’s refusal to be pigeonholed....Kert has had the good judgment to explore the family correspondence—and the good fortune to strike gold there.”
—Los Angeles Times

“Well-wrought...Kert, despite all her exhaustive research, happily lets her subject retain all of her formidable vitality and independence....A splendidly intelligent, very readable portrait of a woman who was as wise in the rearing of her family as in the spending of her great wealth.”
—Kirkus Reviews
