Books by Eleanor Bailey

Her own daughter, Sarah, is truly dispossessed and, through promiscuous sex, seeks the affection denied to her as a child. Though disparate, their lives have a curious symmetry: four generations of women who have all been touched by a legacy of madness which they must, in one way or another, confront if they are to achieve fulfilment.

It is only together that they can claw their way back to life, perhaps through the life and times of Europe's most gilded city .
