Franco-British writer Roger Greaves tells the strange story of a mixed-gender literary partnership in 20th century London, when a penniless French immigrant girl from Soho teamed up with a young Fleet Street columnist in Mayfair to celebrate the role of women at a turning point in postwar Europe. Their 40+ books about themselves and the world of 'Madeleine', their feminine figurehead, remained constantly in print from 1940 until the tide turned on them and their prestigious publisher J.M Dent & Sons in the 1970s. Reading Madeleine reveals how the vintage appeal of Mrs Robert Henrey has also much to say about the world of today and its troubled relationship with truth.
