Printing Details

First edition, first printing. Hardback bound in green cloth with gilt titling to spine. 19 × 12.5cm, 304pp.

Jealousy is the story of Michael and Catherine on a 300-mile driving trip from London to Gretna Green to elope, while reflecting on Catherine's past marriage to a war neurotic and Michael's own struggles with possessiveness.

The author was prolific publishing dozens of titles from the 1920s to the 1970s. Her first novel, Sleeveless Errand, was ruled obscene for excessive bad language.
