Items related to Misfortune's Friend
Mrs Henshaw, middle-aged, unfashionable, faded, who nevertheless pours out the vigour and decisive energy of a young woman in determined efforts to help the friendless, the homeless, the hungry; the friend of the exile, of the victim of injustice, persecution, violence. But also the compassionate rescuer of Althea. Born to wealth and privilege but crippled by polio, physically isolated, hungry for the warmth of intimate love which seems forever beyond her reach. And of Fern, independent, restless, emotionally adrift amidst the racial and political turbulence of Berlin and London in the 1930s, on the eve of World War II. Yet it is from these two young women that she learns that she must correct a mistake made in her past, which has brought anguish to her dearest love and unacknowledged loss to herself.
