About the book
"Won't you stay a little longer?" the hostess asked while she held the girl's hand and smiled. "It's too early for every one to go - it's too absurd." Mrs. Churchley inclined her head to one side and looked gracious; she flourished about her face, in a vaguely protecting sheltering way, an enormous fan of red feathers. Everything in her composition, for Adela Chart, was enormous. She had big eyes, big teeth, big shoulders, big hands, big rings and bracelets, big jewels of every sort and many of them.
First sentence: "Won't you stay a little longer?" the hostess asked while she held the girl's hand and smiled.
