Mrs. Paramor

1923. In this light and clever novel Mr. Vance holds a mirror to the carefree set in America who have too much leisure to be monogamous and not enough sincerity to be happy. A woman who can't hold her husband doesn't deserve him is the easy going philosophy of Jill Wethered. The fascinating Mrs. Paramor whose husband was stolen has a different philosophy-A husband who has to be held isn't worth holding. This delightful satire on modern American life has just enough truth behind its humor and sparkle to hit a good many people pretty hard. The absorbing episodes of love and intrigue are told in the sympathetic yet dashing and sophisticated style of which Mr. Vance is an acknowledged master.
