2 68 y separately published work icon Grand Days Frank Moorhouse , ( trans. Jean-Paul Delamotte et. al. )agent with title Tout un Monde d'espoir ) Paris : Belfond , 1996 Z113558 1993 single work novel historical fiction On a train from Paris to Geneva, Edith Campbell Berry meets Major Ambrose Westwood in the dining car, makes his acquaintance over a lunch of six courses, and allows him to kiss her passionately. Their early intimacy binds them together once they reach Geneva and their posts at the newly created League of Nations. There, a heady idealism prevails over Edith and her young colleagues, and nothing seems beyond their grasp, certainly not world peace. The exuberance of the times carries over into Geneva nights: Edith is drawn into a dark and glamorous underworld where, coaxed by Ambrose, she becomes more and more sexually adventurous.
