Instead, it quickly became a classic of socialism, one of the very first politically aware novels. A story of love and conspiracy, it was based in part on the early life of Sidney Rosenblum, better known as "Reilly Ace of Spies" --Voynich's boyfriend at the time.Voynich, E. L. is the author of 'Gadfly' with ISBN 9781404304673 and ISBN 1404304673.
