Having established herself as a journalist and short story writer, Leverson published her debut novel in 1907 to moderate acclaim. Entertaining and effortlessly witty, Leverson's prose paints a stunning portrait of the Edwardian era, a time when hope and relative peace proved prosperous for many. Often compared to her close friend Oscar Wilde, Leverson, a pioneering Jewish woman, remains a unique and refreshing voice in English literature. Marriage, friends, a home-Romer and Valentia seem to have everything they could ever want. Under the surface, however, jealousy and doubt threaten the love they have spent years nurturing. While Valentia spends more and more of her time with her cousin Harry de Freyne, a handsome artist, Romer does his best to ground himself in trust and devotion. Meanwhile, Valentia's sister Daphne resists the advances of the wealthy aristocrat Van Buren. Miss Luscombe, one of the couple's many eccentric friends, is an impoverished young actress who falls for a mysterious tattooed man. As each of these characters navigates the needs and desires of themselves and those around them, Leverson never loses sight of their humanity, for all its beauty and flaws. The Limit is a humorous tale of romance and desire from Ada Leverson, an underappreciated novelist of the Edwardian era. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Ada Leverson's The Limit is a classic work of British literature reimagined for modern readers.
