Three Weeks
Autor Elinor Glynen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 iul 2006
"It is a book to make one forget that the world is grey. Be as sad, as sane as you like, for all the other days of your life, but steal one mad day, I adjure you, and read "Three Weeks.""
-- Percival Pollard in "Town Topics"
"The power and beauty of its descriptions and the pathos of its scenes are undeniable."
-- "The Western Christian Advocate"
"A cleverly told tale, full of dainty sentiment, of poetic dreaming and dramatic incident."
-- "The Brooklyn Eagle"
"We feel inclined to throw at her (the heroine) neither stones nor laurels, but rather to congratulate the author upon a powerful story that lays a grip upon the mind and heart."
-- "The San Francisco Argonaut"
"No wonder that "Three Weeks" is one of the best sellers."
-- "The Detroit Free Press"

'The pioneer of erotic fiction' DAILY MAIL
'Awakening female erotic consciousness, after the long sleep of Victorianism' HILARY A. HALLETT, NEW YORK TIMES
'Its power was so great, in fact, that it threatened the patriarchal structures that the twentieth century was built on' ATLANTIC
This hugely enjoyable novel, a scandalous success in 1907, is even today, startling for its enthusiastic depiction of female sensuality. One of Virago's trio of turn-of-the-century erotic bestsellers, with Edith Maud Hull's The Sheik and Ethel M. Dell's The Way of an Eagle. Paul Verdayne, a wealthy English nobleman in his early twenties is caught embracing the parson's daughter. His parents decide to send him away to France and then Switzerland.
In Switzerland, he sees a woman referred to only as "the Lady". The Lady is older, in her thirties. After several days of exchanging lustful glances, they actually meet. She invites him to her apartment where they share a sexual relationship for three weeks. She disappears soon after and Paul is upset and returns to England. Amid high drama Paul finally discovers her august and tragic secret . . .
