Synopsis
Nowhere is Jean Rhys's talent for fully inhabiting the minds of her characters more apparent than in After Leaving Mr. Mackenzie , her masterful second novel. Rhys lays bare the desires and contradictions of her mercurial protagonist, Julia, in this haunting depiction of life after the end of a tumultuous affair., Julia Martin is in Paris and at the end of her rope. Once beautiful, she was taken care of by men. Now, after being dropped by her latest lover, Mr. Mackenzie, Julia is running out of luck and chances. A visit to London to see her ailing mother might offer an opportunity to start over--but it also brings her face to face with her distrustful sister, Norah, who can't help but feel that Julia has only changed for the worse in the years since they last saw one another. And it proves difficult to escape the desultory romantic entanglements of Paris when a suitor follows her to England.

    I got 4 books from this seller. One was wrong book (same writer,simular covers) which,when you order used books several at a time from big used book warehouses, this happens every now and then. Seller contacted me and refunded within a couple hours on the same business day. These people do business right.The 3 others were just as described, packed perfect. Shipping was on time. Good books at good price and a seller who does business right. I highly recommend this seller and the items I ordered.

    Book was priced well and arrived in condition described. My only complaint is it was shipped in a very thin plastic mailer, and one corner of the cover and several pages were scuffed and curled as a result. I would have appreciated the seller either using a thicker mailer or doubling the thin mailer to protect my purchase, as I've had other sellers do.
