Shadow Marriage

By Kathleen Thompson Norris

Subjects:

Description: There wasn't a woman in San Francisco who wouldn't marry him in a flash... Georgia knows it. Everyone knows it. How can she dream of refusing? So Georgia marries Philip Duryea and is whirled into the partying, glittering life of the very rich. She is married, but she isn't really a wife. She is another one of Philip's prized possessions. She fights for a real marriage. But her attempts at closeness, her pleas for tenderness, anger her husband. Soon she finds herself learning silence, as one learns a new language... But how long can she silence her heart?
