| Epigraph |
'It is a great thing, and very great, to be able to do without all solace, both human and divine, and be willing to bear this exile of the heart for the honour of God, and in nothing seek self, and not to have regards to one's own merit.' — Thomas À Kempis.  | |

| First words |
Was it not gazing at the painted glade, and listening to the mechanical warbling of instruments, that Mrs Travers, in the most daring of gowns and the most conspicuous of boxes, decided to elope with Lord Noland, in love with a rustic solitude, she who was never happy out of London? | |

| Book description |
With no determined interest in marriage, the naïve and young Daisy moves from her country home to London with her new husband, Cyprian. His friendliness towards her becomes disinterest while he engages with the aesthetic crowd, leaving Daisy to navigate scandal and gossip on her own. Amidst social betrayals, Daisy's tendency to see the best in people leads her to Clarence, a masculine bachelor firmly against society's vanity. | |
