However, she soon discovers that independence blurs into loneliness, especially when she receives some heart-breaking news ...
Banned in several countries on first publication, August is a Wicked Month is a shimmering, sensual tale of a woman rediscovering herself - and it feels just as glorious, radical, and escapist as today.
