Teave selle e-raamatu kohta

A study of dual personality. "The author contents herself with two personalities in the attractive body of Milly Flaxman, the first a rather dull, learned, extremely dutiful nature, and the second, which is the "invader", brilliant, fascinating, and adventurous to the point of danger. When therefore Ian Stewart has been married to Milly some two years or so, he has reluctantly to admit to himself that he is in a way the husband of two very different women, one of whom bores him, though she is faithful and devoted, and the other with whom he is in love, though she cares little for him"--The Sautrday Review, Aug. 24, 1907.
