Chapter
The Perverseness of It
The Perverseness of It begins with Mr. Carter accompanying Miss Nellie Phaeton on a brisk carriage ride through the Park, their lively conversation sparking with wit and layered meanings. Miss Phaeton’s energy contrasts Carter’s composed demeanor, yet they match intellectually, their banter circling the nuances of affection and societal ambition. She pokes at the contradictions of love and marriage, suggesting that romantic inclinations often crumble under the weight of expectations and fortune.…-

Retribution
Retribution begins with Mr. Carter firmly deciding to adopt a more prudent approach, particularly regarding Dolly Foster, whose flair for mischief often drags him into public spectacle. His resolve is tested almost immediately when he's summoned to meet Lady Mickleham, the formidable mother of Dolly’s fiancé. Their meeting unfolds with a cold politeness, heavy with scrutiny as Lady Mickleham methodically examines him through her pince-nez, a symbolic gesture of judgment as much as a practical accessory.…-

Chapter
Cordial Relations
Cordial Relations begins with Mr. Carter paying a visit to Miss Dolly Foster, who is soon to become Lady Mickleham. In his hand is a farewell token—a broken pearl heart encrusted with rubies and diamonds, offered half in jest and half in lingering sentiment. The gift is not just a decorative trinket; it subtly signals the fractured affection he still holds for her. Dolly, never one to dwell too long on sentimentality, accepts it with an amused eye and a quip, diverting attention away from any deeper…-

Chapter
A Liberal Education
A Liberal Education opens with Dolly Foster observing Phil Meadows, now a polished member of society, pass her by on the Row without the slightest nod of recognition. This moment stirs a reflective irritation in her, as she recounts to Mr. Carter how, just a few years earlier, he was a socially awkward and hopeless figure. Meadows once carried an unrolled umbrella and a brown paper parcel, wore ill-fitting clothes, and approached life with a sense of grim earnestness. He neither smoked nor drank, and his…-

Chapter
My Triumphant Finale
My Triumphant Finale begins not with celebration, but with silence—the heavy kind that settles in a prison cell at night when hope has begun to fade. Sigismund Zaluski, a man once full of promise and intellect, finds himself confined not by just stone walls, but by the weight of an accusation rooted in thoughtless gossip. Within those narrow walls, time slows, days blur, and the mind becomes both sanctuary and tormentor. Desperate for a lifeline, he reaches out—not through voice, which the walls…-

Chapter
My Seventh Stage
My Seventh Stage begins as two journeys are set into motion—one by rail, the other by post. As autumn sunlight bathes the English countryside in warmth, Sigismund Zaluski departs from the peaceful town of Muddleton, answering an unexpected summons from his uncle in Russia. Though the visit is intended to be brief—just a fortnight—he leaves behind his belongings and a tender promise to Gertrude, his fiancée, to return soon. Simultaneously, a letter penned in idle malice—full of falsehoods—makes…-

Chapter
My Sixth Stage
My Sixth Stage begins during a particularly airless September in London, where Mark Shrewsbury, an otherwise prolific writer, found himself weighed down by the unrelenting heat and creative inertia. The comfort of his writing chamber offered little relief, and even the familiar rhythm of his typewriter failed to spark motivation. His mind wandered, detached from the manuscript he was laboring over. It was during this uninspired spell that he drifted into the club, looking for companionship or at least…-

My Fifth Stage
My Fifth Stage begins in a drawing room dimly lit by chandeliers and softly humming with the buzz of a formal dinner party. At the heart of the gathering is Mrs. Selldon, a hostess known more for her generous hospitality than for sparkling conversation. Her greatest social challenge isn’t arranging cutlery or managing menus—it’s managing words. Especially when her companion at the table is none other than Mark Shrewsbury, a celebrated novelist whose penetrating prose unnerves her more than she would…-

Chapter
My Fourth Stage
My Fourth Stage unspools in the carefully curated world of Mrs. Milton-Cleave, a woman who thrives on appearances and subtle manipulation. Known for her tasteful luncheons and careful conversation, she moves through her day with a practiced grace that conceals her desire to influence those around her. That day, her mind lingers not on her usual preoccupations but on a passing moment she witnessed—Gertrude Morley and Sigismund Zaluski walking together in the garden, absorbed in each other’s company. The…-
