Reissued with a beautiful new illustrative cover. Frederica endures the breakdown of her marriage and becomes embroiled in a high-profile court case

After her husband becomes violent, Frederica Potter flees with her young son to London. There, she secures a teaching position in an art school, and finds herself surrounded by painters and poets with dreams of rebellion. Then Frederica meets Jude Mason, the strange and charismatic author of a wildly controversial novel. When her husband files for divorce and Jude becomes the target of a high-profile court case, Frederica's life threatens to spiral out of control.

THE THIRD FREDERICA POTTER NOVEL

Industry Reviews

"Tartly funny, emotionally engrossing and headily intelligent" * Sunday Times * "A formidable feast of a book... A. S. Byatt can use her extraordinary mind to probe passional conflicts more hair-raisingly well than any thriller-writer" * Daily Telegraph * "In this exuberant and vastly ambitious novel, A. S. Byatt has made both an intellectual chronicle and an intimate history... This book is about the life of art and the art of living, and its prose is charged with powerful images" * Harpers & Queen * "A remarkable book, of exceptional gravity and serious charm... it balances an acute sense of the values of art and intellect with an imaginative sympathy. Its ambition is almost unique in the English novel" * Spectator *
