Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from My Wife
If you've read as far as this it's something I suppose, and a small triumph in its way. You wouldn't have read this chapter at all if you had guessed it wasn't part of the tale, just the Preface, which means 'to be omitted' as every novel-reader will tell you. If you've left off before you've got even as far as this, I don't think much of your manners. You're a rude devil, that's what you are. If I am calling a lady names it's unfortunate, but I do not see that I am to be blamed for her behaviour, sorry as I may be about it.
