In Love (Modern Romance Classics)

A powerful novel, telling of a middle-aged man who falls in love with a young divorcée who lives alone in a tiny, untidy apartment in the New York of the 1940s. Here, he visits her, erratically and not always happily. All is soon inexorably overturned when a rich interloper comes between the couple with an indecent proposal - a thousand dollars for a night. A little masterpiece"" - Elizabeth Bowen. ""Brilliant...Quite the best he has written"" - TLS.
