"On the couch of a fashionable analyst in mid-town New York lies a lovely and famous young actress whose private life has been as disastrous as her public life has been successful. Carlotta McBride is under treatment as an alcoholic. On the opening page of this frightening novel Dr. Fowler asks her how she feels. 'I feel as if I was walking on a tight wire.' And that very evening the cure breaks down. Her old haunts know her again, and in particular Mickey Sheridan's, that drunk's paradise in Lexington Avenue. It is seven in the morning before she gets home. With uncanny skill Mr. Gorham penetrates into the mind of this apparently doomed woman - into her past as she relates it to the analyst, into her present as she struggles against the demon that possesses her . *Carlotta McBride* is a novel of extraordinary power. It will arouse feelings of horror, pity and excitement in varying proportions to varying readers. Very few of them will be able to put it down" (from the front flap).…
