Leaf room. Grenville K.

What if Elizabeth MacArthur, the wife of the infamous John MacArthur, the “father” of woolen sheep breeding, wrote frank and secret memoirs? But what if the novelist Kate Grenville miraculously found and published them? This begins a novel, balancing on the verge of reality and fiction. A marriage with a ruthless tyrant, the desire for a power inaccessible to a woman in society. Elizabeth MacArthur controls his life with zeal and passion, with the help of cunning and wit. This is a novel whose action takes place in the past, but it is equally and about the present, about where secrets and lies can form reality.
