That Which Hath Wings

Set in the tense years leading up to the Great War, this ambitious novel follows Francis, Viscount Norwater, and his young wife Margot as a passionate new marriage runs headlong into a world sliding toward catastrophe. Richard Dehan, the pen name of the Irish writer Clotilde Graves, tells the story with the sweep and moral seriousness that made the Edwardian bestseller so popular, folding private romance into the larger drama of a society about to be tested by 1914. It is a full-blooded tale of love, duty, and gathering conflict from an author who once commanded a huge readership and has since been unfairly forgotten.
