Excerpt from The Wyndham Girls "No pink for me, please, I want that beautiful shimmering green, made up over shining white silk. It will make my glossy brown eyes and hair look like a ripe chestnut among its green leaves." "Oh, Bab, such a glistening sentence! 'Shimmering green, ' 'shining white, ' 'glossy hair' - you didn't mean glossy eyes, I hope! Besides, chestnuts don't show among green leaves, they stay in their burs till they drop off the tree." "Now, Phyllis, what is the use of spoiling a poetical metaphor - figure - what do you call it? Which do you like best? Have you made up your mind, Jessamy?" "I want all white, probably this mousseline de soie." "I 'm rather inclined to the pearl, yet the violet is lovely." "You both 'know your effects, ' as that conceited little novelist said last night, " cried Barbara. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
