Included:

  • EX-WIFE
  • LOVE GOES PAST
  • ONE MORE SUCH VICTORY
This three-novel collection gathers sharp, unsentimental stories of love, divorce, and the costs of trying to live by one’s own rules in a changing city. It follows women who juggle paid work, social expectation, and messy desires while learning that independence often brings new hardships. The prose is clear and unadorned; scenes move with the crisp logic of a reporter, turning small daily moments into moral tests. Readers encounter offices, subway rides, crowded parties, lonely hotel rooms, and the small transactions that shape everyday life.

Money and status shape nearly every turning of the plot. Relationships bend or break under financial pressure, gossip, and the quick moral panics of modern life. The narratives do not romanticize heartbreak or victory; they record the compromises people make to survive and the quiet losses that rarely make the papers. At their best, these novels offer sharp social observation and steady compassion for people caught between older rules and new freedoms. This volume suits readers who want clear, honest fiction about how social change alters private life. 

Read the three works in sequence to watch how similar dilemmas repeat under different pressures, and to see how a steady storyteller traces the human cost of stepping outside expected roles.

Ursula Parrott

Ursula Parrott (1899-1957) was born Katherine Ursula Towle in Dorchester, Massachusetts. After graduating from Radcliffe College, she became a newspaper reporter in New York and married her fellow journalist Lindesay Marc Parrott. The experience of their divorce helped inspire her first novel, Ex-Wife, which was published anonymously in 1929 and sold 100,000 copies in its first year. Parrott became one of the most successful female writers of the 1930s, seeing several of her bestsellers adapted for the screen, including Strangers May Kiss and Next Time We Live. Her tumultuous private life included three more marriages, rumored liaisons with F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sinclair Lewis, and the jazz guitarist Michael Neely Bryan. She died of cancer on a charity ward in New York, having spent the small fortune she earned with her pen.
