All Eleanor Butler and Sarah Ponsonby wanted was to live together and devote their lives to each other, so in 1778 they ran away from their aristocratic homes in Ireland to settle in Llangollen, Wales, to devote themselves to delicious seclusion and romantic friendship.

An intrepid exploration of gender, female sexuality and passion: romantic, carnal, and cerebral. This brilliant novel, long out of print, was shortlisted for the 1973 Booker Prize.
