We see Rebekah marry and become the mother of three sons, constantly humiliated by her philandering husband, while Bertie, the younger and more beautiful sister drifts from youthful seduction to life as a prostitute in London. Both women are betrayed through their sexuality, but this is a powerful novel with many themes, remarkable for its celebration of sisterhood and female creativity and its impassioned plea for greater love and understanding between women and men."--Cover ER -
