The Mistress

Edición de la obra The Mistress

"Although at the end of the 20th century society still behaves as if marital infidelity were an unfathomable aberration, the fact is that the mistress has existed since the beginning of time."--BOOK JACKET. "Victoria Griffin considers the political mistress - from Megan Lloyd George to Monica Lewinsky; the writer's mistress - the women who had affairs with Albert Camus, H.G. Wells and Ford Maddox Ford; and the artist's mistress - among others, Rodin's mistresses Camille Claudel and Gwen John. She examines how the roles of wife and mistress come about, how each may threaten and support the other."--BOOK JACKET. "Griffin - a mistress herself - handles her material deftly."--BOOK JACKET.
