Description: Letty Fox, with brio and relish, describes her picaresque adventures in the New York and London of the 1930s and 1940s. Surrounded by a family notable for its size, eccentricity and marital irregularities, Letty herself has many affairs but finds marriage elusive. Bizarre, satirical and imaginative, this powerful portrayal of a woman who might have been independent but chose otherwise stands as one of Christina Stead's most impressive works.
