Summary
At the center of this sparkling small-town drama are Mrs. Wilbur Edes, a woman of ambition and envy, and the quietly enigmatic Annie Eustace, whose hidden talents upend the assumptions of everyone around her. Through the social rituals of the Zenith Club and the whispered judgments of Fairbridge society, Freeman exposes the absurdity of class pretension, the fragility of respectability, and the secret lives that flourish behind a proper façade.
Written with the same psychological precision that drew comparisons to Henry James and Virginia Woolf, The Butterfly House is a timeless, witty exploration of ambition, identity, and the pettiness that passes for civilization in every era.
