When four women leave their drab lives behind to go on holiday in Italy, their lives are changed forever by the Mediterranean. Mrs. Arbuthnot and Mrs. Wilkins, while part of the same ladies' club, have never spoken. Lady Caroline Dester and the elderly Mrs. Fisher join their holiday so as to mitigate expenses.

Story0
Vera (1921) by Elizabeth von Arnim is a darkly comedic exploration of her tumultuous second marriage to Earl Russell, offering a sharp critique of the romantic illusions that lead wives to tolerate their husbands tyrannies. This unromantic tale weaves a narrative that foreshadows Daphne du Mauriers Rebecca. Naive Lucy Entwhistle finds herself swept into marriage with widower Everard Wemyss, whose imposing mansion, The Willows, is haunted by the ghost of his late wife, Vera—an obsession that consumes Lucy. The households servants play both sides, cleverly undermining Everards oppressive ...

Con uno straordinario esercizio di agrodolce ironia, Elizabeth von Arnim ci trasporta nell'universo "très chic" e al contempo estremamente ipocrita dell'alta società inglese. Sospeso fra l'atmosfera soffocante di Londra e i variopinti giardini della Provenza, "La fattoria dei gelsomini" prende le mosse da uno scandalo. Terry, la giovane figlia della rispettatissima lady Daisy, ha infatti avuto un'avventura con Andrew, scatenando le gelosie della moglie Rosie e, soprattutto, la perfidia di lady Belle, che non esiterà a ricorrere a un vile ricatto.

Priscilla, figlia del granduca di Lothen-Kunitiz, si sente oppressa dai continui obblighi sociali a cui il proprio rango la costringe. Etichetta di corte, protocolli e vuote convenzioni non le interessano nel modo più assoluto. Così, quando si profila all'orizzonte la prospettiva - tutt'altro che agognata - di dover sposare un lontano cugino, la giovane granduchessa prende finalmente una decisione che matura da tempo: ritirarsi in un tranquillo cottage nella campagna inglese e dedicarsi soltanto alla beneficienza. Al suo seguito solo il bibliotecario Fritzing e la cameriera Annalise.

Luglio 1919. Dopo una lunga passeggiata, Elizabeth raggiunge il suo chalet in montagna, con ancora negli occhi gli orrori della guerra appena trascorsa. Le montagne svizzere rappresentano una meta sicura dove il silenzio e la bellezza possono offrire il conforto e la pace a lungo agognati. Ogni cosa, tuttavia, sembra ormai cambiata e la casa, un tempo piena di amici, si è fatta ora vuota e silenziosa.

Una mattina estiva del 1920 la giovane Lucy perde il padre improvvisamente ritrovandosi sola e disperata, senza speranze. È uno sconosciuto a risvegliarla dal torpore che il lutto le ha causato: il legame con Everard Wemyss, quarantenne rimasto vedovo da poco, è immediato, e la condivisa sofferenza per la recente perdita dà origine a una confortante intimità. Ma il matrimonio con Wemyss sarà diverso da come Lucy aveva sognato: le mura di casa diverranno quelle di una tetra prigione dove i giorni sono scanditi da rituali irrazionali.

Ma la cosa non preoccupa lei, sempre pronta a sorridere e a compiacere, diventa solo una maledizione per chi decide di possederla.

In un club della Londra anni Venti due signore inglesi scoprono di essere accomunate da una vita amorosa insoddisfacente, molto diversa da quella che avevano sognato il giorno del matrimonio. Mrs Wilkins, timida e repressa, è sposata con un avvocato ambizioso che "lodava la parsimonia tranne quando si trattava del cibo che finiva nel suo piatto"; Mrs Arbuthnot, estremamente religiosa, è sposata a uno scrittore di biografie sulle amanti dei re: per una donna come lei, una cosa davvero sconveniente.

Story0
L'autrice, riscoperta recentemente dalla letteratura di genere, non ha mai pubblicato, in vita, questo romanzo, che fu scoperto dall'editore fra le sue carte e pubblicato integralmente (anche se mancava il capitolo IV, del quale peraltro non si sente la mancanza). Perché il romanzo, che risale al 1901, non sia mai stato pubblicato dall'autrice, è ignoto: certamente il fatto che la protagonista si chiami Elizabeth, come in diverse altre sue opere, fa pensare a una certa ispirazione autobiografica, che può essere la causa della sua non pubblicazione.
