Quartet by Jean Rhys
The story of a woman on the edge caught in the stranglehold between her lover and his wife. When her husband is released from prison, the situation explodes.
"If difficulty of subject is to be considered in judging the merit of a novel, Miss Rhys must be accredited with high achievementNot only does she deal with the most complex personalities, exploring the most intimate recesses of their psychology, but she does so with the directness and certitude of the fine artist. The style, especially of the dialogue, belongs to the new tradition in prose, which shuns elaboration for sharpness and intensity of effect." -- New York Times
