Excerpt from The Troll Garden
Flavia could not endure being contradicted; she always seemed to regard it in the light of a de feat, and usually coloured unbecomingly. Now she changed the subject.

Reseña del editor
As the train neared Tarrytown, Imogen Willard began to wonder why she had consented to be one of Flavia shouse party at all. She had not felt enthusiastic about it since leaving the city, and was experiencing a prolonged ebb of purpose, a current of chilling indecision, under which she vainly sought for the motive which had induced her to accept Flavia sinvitation. Perhaps it was a vague curiosity to see Flavia shusband, who had been the magician of her childhood and the hero of innumerable Arabian fairy tales. Perhaps it was a desire to see M. Roux, whom Flavia had announced as the especial attraction of the occasion. Perhaps it was a wish to study that remarkable woman in her own setting. Imogen admitted a mild curiosity concerning Flavia.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the character and motivations of Flavia, a social climber who seeks validation through associating with celebrated artists. The artists in turn, view Flavia as a source of amusement and patronage. The author, a close friend of Flavia's daughter, presents an insider's perspective on the shallow relationships that form the basis of Flavia's aspirations. Through the author's vivid descriptions, the reader is drawn into the opulent world of receptions and lavish dinners, providing an intimate glimpse of an era defined by artistic achievement and social ambition. The novel delves into the complexities of Flavia's character, exposing the vulnerability and desperation behind her facade of self-confidence. This book explores the themes of social acceptance, the pursuit of recognition, and the nature of genuine relationships. The author's keen observations and sharp wit provide a nuanced portrait of a woman who is both fascinating and deeply flawed. The novel's insights into the human condition make it an enduring examination of the sacrifices and compromises we make in the pursuit of self-worth.
