Carrie Hayes, the author of “Well Dressed Lies” writes a complicated and intriguing novel. The Genres for this book are Historical Fiction, Romance and Fiction. The timeline for this book is set in and around 1877 in America and England. The author vividly describes the scenery, landscape, and the colorful and dark characters. I appreciate that the author refers to the importance of art in literature. The author also mentions music and opera. The characters are complex, complicated, flawed and creative.
Virginia Woodhull and her sister Tennessee Claflin, retired suffragists have left New York with a questionable reputation. They have left for England to try to establish themselves with a good reputation, and possibly attract a husband. Society seems to be different in England, but the sisters seem to find other Americans and interesting people. Tennessee seems to be “clairvoyant” and has warnings of things that will occur. The writer Henry James is often at parties with the sisters and has written about a woman comparing her to one of the sisters.
Both sisters struggle with their own problems and conflicts. Their involvements have conflicts. I recommend that you follow their journey.
