One of Bennett’s most revealing and underrated novels, The Pretty Lady (1918) is set in London. Contrasting class and character, and rife with deception and misunderstanding, it explores the relationship between Gilbert and a French prostitute, Christine, in a world frenzied with patriotic fervor.
A propos de l’auteur
Arnold Bennett (1867–1931) was a British writer whose prolific output included numerous works of fiction and nonfiction, literary criticism as well as theatre journalism, an opera, and a screenplay. English novelist Margaret Drabble says of him, “Bennett’s books I think are very fine indeed, on the highest level, deeply moving… I feel they have been underrated.”
