Only Charlotte - 9781733328302

Lenore James, a woman of independent means who has outlived three husbands, is determined to disentangle her brother Gilbert from the beguiling Charlotte Eden. Chafing against misogyny and racism in the post-Civil War South, Lenore learns that Charlotte¿s husband is enmeshed in the re-enslavement schemes of a powerful judge, and she worries that Gilbert¿s adoration of Charlotte will lead him into disaster. Inspired by a production of Shakespeare¿s The Winter¿s Tale, Lenore adopts the role of Paulina for herself to discover how far Charlotte¿s husband bears the blame for his wife¿s fate and whether or not he is capable of atonement. In her process of unraveling the intricacies of the lives of others, Lenore finds that Gilbert¿s love for Charlotte is, indeed, his saving grace while Lenore¿s passion for creative expression is her own.
