Pretty Lady
Published in 1918, 'The Pretty Lady' by Arnold Bennett tells the story of Christine, a French prostitute who escapes wartime Ostend and establishes herself in London. Unlike typical portrayals, Christine is a self-sufficient and pragmatic businesswoman navigating a fragmented society. The novel critiques wartime conditions, highlighting social injustices and the British press's lack of transparency about the war. It is regarded as one of Bennett's most revealing and underrated works.
