Sylvia (Parade’s End, Ford Madox Ford).Read about another woman on the list.
To call Sylvia a wronged woman is absolutely a stretch. If anything, it’s her husband, Christopher, who is wronged by the flighty, unfaithful woman he’s married. That said, she stays with him for a time after rumors of his emotional affair with a young suffragette named Valentine start to swirl.
Parade’s End also appears on Raymond Sokolov's list of five of the best books for the Anglomaniac.
