Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Portrait of a Lady, Vol. 2 of 3
Madame Merle was rarely guilty of the awkwardness of retracting what she had said her wisdom was shown rather in maintaining it and placing it in a favourable light. My dear friend, Isabel would certainly not have had seventy thousand pounds left her if she had not been the most charming girl in the world. Her charm includes great cleverness.
