Kind words from BookPage on The Address

“With her nimble writing style, Davis makes pithy commentary on gender, social and economic in­equality in both eras. In the earlier setting, one fallen woman is carted off to an insane asylum, while an­other retains her status by dint of being in a respectable marriage. In 1985, Melinda dismisses servants without a second thought and treats Bailey just a little bit better. This thought-provoking book makes you wonder what Edith Wharton would have made of these Camdens and pseudo-Camdens. Thankfully, Davis is here to tell us.”
