Description

In 1955, Harold Robbins' groundbreaking novel exposed America's complex relationship with female sexuality, shocking the literary world. This story, told from a woman's perspective, explores the power of sex and its impact on a man's world. The case against MaryAnn Flood, the city's most notorious madame, brings together two people who have known each other for life: ADA Mike Keyes and Marja Fluudjincki, the head of 79 Park Avenue. As Mike prosecutes her, they both face their biggest challenges. Can she still be capable of love after sacrificing everything to rise to power? Can he set aside his personal feelings for justice? This novel raises questions about society's treatment of women and the sexualization of female bodies. It is a story of nuanced characters and unanswered questions, inviting readers to consider these complex issues.
