Description
The creator of the delightful “The Enchanted April” Elizabeth von Arnim called “Ver…” her best novel. It is a dramatic and in part autobiographical story about how love can be deceptive and people at times aren’t who they seem to be during romantic courtship. Lucy and Everard have recently lost loved ones: she lost her beloved father, he lost his wife, Véra. A growing attachment of the heart leads the heroes to an inevitable marriage. But can a marriage be happy if a woman is blinded by love, and a man is a selfish person who listens only to himself? And what happened to Vera, whose death came as a sudden shock to all the inhabitants of the family estate?
The novel was published in 1921, and at once readers placed it alongside “Wuthering Heights” by Emily Brontë.
