Julia France,
By Bomojaz (South Central PA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Julia France and Her Times (Paperback)
Gertrude Atherton was nothing if not an ambitious writer. No subject or setting seemed beyond her powers. This book is a long, episodic novel about Julia Edis: her marriage to the monstrous Lt. France, heir to a dukedom; dull years spent in England; her escape from her tyrannical husband; her becoming a suffragette (a favorite Atherton theme); and her eventually falling in love with Daniel Tay. It was bold for its day (another Atherton trait), but she was not able to draw Julia France in such a way that she remains in our memory for long. All that she suffers, all that she does to give meaning to her life, evaporates almost as quickly as it takes to turn the page.
