Synopsis

Romantic verse meets social reflection in a sweeping collection of interconnected stories.

This volume blends love, ambition, and moral insight through richly drawn portraits of sisters, husbands, and lovers set against elegant homes, gardens, and drawing rooms. Across vivid scenes and shifting voices, it traces desire, devotion, and the consequences of choice without losing a note of period atmosphere.

In these poems, Amanda and Olive move through delight and disillusion, while others confront longing, fidelity, and the costs of passion. The collection uses lyric storytelling to explore friendship, marriage, and the pressures of society, offering a window into intimate lives and public mores.
