Description

This old-fashioned romance for a modern world tells the story of Pierre, the daughter of a ravishing Italian soprano who is swept away in a glorious affair with a man who has "dancing eyes". Pierre is forced to flee to New York, but forgetting her beloved proves to be far harder than she imagines.

First Sentence

In the golden half-light of a midsummer's evening, the sort where any kind of magic can occur, and often does, in the midst of a party held in a wild and rambling garden, stood Pierre, teetering on highly unsuitable heels, surronded by a symphony of overripe roses.
