The Friendly Young Ladies

by Mary Renault

Not yet rated

Helen and Leo live together, two modern young women in thirties London--as more than friends--in a houseboat on the Thames. When Leo's teenage sister Elsie comes to stay, their cheerful Bohemian life is turned upside down. The handsome young doctor Elsie adores proceeds to chase after all three women. Leo's friendship with the man next door suddenly takes on erotic overtones. Long-quiet ghosts from her troubled past begin to stir. And before long, no one is sure just who feels what for whom. A charming and provocative romantic comedy. -- adapted from back cover
