Night and Day

An insightful novel about two women in Edwardian England and the men who pursue them by the author of Mrs. Dalloway. Exploring themes of love, marriage, and freedom, Night and Day follows four characters: a privileged woman who prefers her solitude; a vicar's daughter who is fighting for women's suffrage; a lawyer caught in an obsessive romantic fixation; and a struggling writer who seeks a bride more for the sake of his career than for love. It is an absorbing story of passion and conflict, and a portrait of the expectations, anxieties, and hopes of men and women in a time of great social change.
