  <default_description>Sasha Jensen has returned to Paris, the city of both her happiest moments and her most desperate. Her past lies in wait for her in cafes, bars, and dress shops, blurring all distinctions between nightmare and reality. When she is picked up by a young man, she begins to feel that she is still capable of desires and emotions. Few encounters in fiction have been so brilliantly conceived, and few have come to a more unforgettable end.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Jean Rhys is shockingly elegant. She brilliantly confuses, and gives grace and redemption - a strange, ill-begotten contentment that isn't really contentment at all but hot, fiery hunger and anger and despair - to deeply sad characters. Her storytelling is tight, flawless, and unflinching. It's like...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6146007">more...</a>]]></body>

The main character, Sophia, begins her lamenting and suffering on page 1 and it never stops (save for a glimpse here or there of hope that lasts about 2 paragraphs or, if you're lucky, an entire page.)

    <body><![CDATA[Too often ignored in favor of _Sargasso_, this is the real contender. All about the anxiety of $, &amp; the appeal of melancholia, alienation, and the failure of artists to work in retail--in sardonic, sharp language that's perfect for the purpose.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[If I can recall, all the way during reading it I was restless. I didn't quite get the point of certain passages and their significance. But the ending did not leave me mad or confused; it gave me an ephiphany. And for that, I enjoyed it.]]></body>
