From what I understand this is a series which collected new writing from a variety of authors in the Penguin Publishing range. This is No. 36 in the series, and it‘s a mixed bag so far, as I imagine the others are also. The highlight so far has been a Mary Lavin story called “A Single Lady,” about the misapprehensions a daughter has when her wealthy father falls in love with a servant who she perceives as an urchin. ⬇️

psalva Being a single woman (so reasons the story), she takes too long to learn that her father‘s relationship offers something to both parties and that perhaps she doesn‘t know her father as well as she thought. 4w
