This is the story of Lilian Singer, born on 'a wild night in the year
of Federation' into a stifling household which totally fails to subdue
her. Madness, cruelty and sexuality permeate the household but Lilian's
sights are set on education, love and - finally - her own transcendent
forms of independence. Lilian Singer is, or becomes, that rare being:
an eccentric true to her own self whose story reaches out to touch and
delight the most discerning reader. She radiates energy and vitality through
every page of this striking work. |
