Manservant and Maidservant

At once the strangest and most marvelous of lvy Compton-Burnett's fictions, Manservant and Maidservant has for its subject the domestic life of Horace Lamb, sadist, skinflint, and tyrant. But it is when Horace undergoes an altogether unforeseeable change of heart that the real difficulties begin. Is the repentant master a victim along with the former slave? And how can anyone endure the memory of the wrongs that have been done?Compton-Burnett, Ivy is the author of 'Manservant and Maidservant' with ISBN 9780192813800 and ISBN 0192813803.
