Madam

[a tight clean book, minor wear to cloth at spine ends, vintage price sticker (from The White House, San Francisco deparment store) on rear pastedown; jacket moderately edgeworn, a couple of tiny chips at bottom of front panel, light soiling to rear panel]. "Madam is Daisy Park-Newbold Wendell, a woman who is one-third grande dame, one-third eccentric and one-third child. Heiress to millions, twice unhappily married, this woman of tremendous energy spends most of her time playing the invalid. Either at her mother's Long Island place or in a huge suite of hotel rooms, Madam spends her days in bed, over-eating, over-drinking, taking lovers here and there, scattering money to the winds. Madam is portrayed through a host of charming and disreputable people -- her mother, her husbands, her lovers, her children, and those admirable servants, Jobes and Martha."
