In this novel about English society, published in 1887, Lord Usk’s wife has decided to throw a party, inviting guests who she believes will enjoy each other’s company—ignoring society’s rules about inviting company. Ouida uses the story to display her thoughts on society as it is, and on how it should be.
关于作者
Ouida (1839-1908), born Maria Louise Ramé, was a prolific English writer of novels for adults and children.

After a life as extravagant as her fiction, she died in poverty in Italy.
