- Book Synopsis
- This is the story of a young Irish woman who journeys to Spain to work as a governess where she meets Juanito. They seize the opportunity to consummate their love in a night of passion and betrayal that foretells the coming of a new era.
- About The Author
- Kate O'Brien (1897-1974) lived in London and also in Spain, where she developed a passionate and enduring love of Spanish literature and culture. One of the twentieth century's greatest novelists, her fiction broke new ground in Irish writing by focusing on the prosperous Catholic bourgeoisie and by giving central importance to women's struggle for selfhood in a rigidly sex-stereotyped society.
