In this astonishing debut, the venerable but gossipy New York literary scene is twisted into a claustrophobic fun house of paranoia, horror, and wickedly dark humor. George March’s latest novel is a smash. No one is prouder than Mrs. March, his doting wife. But one morning, the shopkeeper of her favorite patisserie suggests that his protagonist is based on Mrs. March herself. Clutching her ostrich-leather pocketbook, she flees, that one casual remark destroying her belief that she knew everything about her husband - as well as herself.

L'ultimo romanzo di George March è come sempre un successo, adorato dai lettori e dalla critica. Nessuno potrebbe essere più fiero della sua devota moglie, che si sente parte di tutti gli onori e i riconoscimenti: Mrs. March è infatti completamente dedicata al marito. La sua vita nell'Upper East Side segue una rigida routine fatta di dignità e totale controllo. Finché una mattina, mentre compra il pane nella consueta pasticceria, Mrs. March conversa con la commessa e per caso capisce che la protagonista del romanzo, una disgustosa e meschina prostituta, è ispirata a lei.

La última novela de George March es un gran éxito, y nadie se enorgullece tanto de ello como su devota esposa, la señora March, que lleva una vida exquisitamente ordenada en el Upper East Side. Una mañana cualquiera, mientras se dispone a comprar el pan de aceitunas en su pastelería favorita, la dependienta insinúa que la protagonista del nuevo libro de George parece inspirada en ella.

A creature of routine and decorum, Mrs March lives an exquisitely controlled existence on the Upper East Side. Every morning begins the same way, with a visit to her favourite patisserie to buy a loaf of olive bread, but her latest trip proves to be her last when she suffers an indignity from which she may never recover: an assumption by the shopkeeper that the protagonist in George March’s new book - a pathetic sex worker, more a figure of derision than desire - is based on Mrs March.

El señor y la señora Pounds han contratado a Winifred Notty para que cumpla el rol de la perfecta institutriz victoriana: dará clases a sus pupilos (francés y costura a Drusilla y álgebra e historia al pequeño Andrew) y les contará cuentos antes de dormir. Pero Ensor House y sus habitantes ocultan más perversiones y secretos que la perturbada señorita Notty, capaz de convertir un té con elegantes invitados y bebés en el salón en un acontecimiento macabro.
