Omschrijving

Duo-Four in the "Duos of Reversal" collection contains another two tales of fantasy female-led reversals from the past and the present.

Read on, as an ambitious former golden-boy from a dirt-poor Russian village attempts to find his fortune in Moscow at the turn of the 20th-century… To find failure and hard-times awaiting him… Before, at his lowest ebb; homeless, hungry, and penniless; he visits a salaried friend in the employ of a late-merchant's widow… And finds his true calling… A calling that insists he remains in the home of the young widow who, it turns out, is a woman from his old village… A young widow with an opening for a servile and attentive retainer!

A faithless and divorced English writer, his best and most lucrative work behind him - living in Cornwall after an acrimonious divorce in the home left to him upon the death of a reclusive old aunt - has his life and position turned upon its head by the young Indian woman he had employed from a local agency as cheap labour to be his live-in housekeeper… A young Indian housekeeper who sees the delusion and need behind her employer's manly and pompous façade… And uses the knowledge to his detriment and her own LASTING advantage!.

Duo-Four contains:

"The Servant Revisited" by Sandrine Bessancort; "The Inferior Revisited" from Kurt Steiner.

2-Believable fictional tales, one of obsession and hard-choices from the past, the other a tale of fixation and regime change in the present; both written in the psychological and female-led style for those readers with a preference for exercising the darker side of the imagination with the help of credible and character-driven plotlines.
