Publisher's Synopsis
"A double-plotted...masterpiece with a great deal of wit and not an ounce of sentimentality." GUARDIAN BOOKS OF THE YEAR "An excellent storyteller." ELIZABETH BOWEN, TATLER Margery Sharp, author of many successful novels, had an unerring eye for character and THE EYE OF LOVE proves her a great storyteller. This light-hearted, witty tale tells of the slightly ridiculous relationship between Miss Dolores Diver and Harry Gibson. They met at the Chelsea Arts Ball: he went as a paper parcel and she as a Spanish dancer. For ten years, their bliss was complete until Mr Gibson decides to marry the spoilt daughter of a wealthy benefactor in order to save his ailing business.
