The Servant... Plus-1

"The Servant. Plus-1", brings us two fantasy female-led misadventures, told in the classical style. Sandrine Bessancort's "The Servant Revisited", tells of how a former golden-boy from a dirt-poor Russian village attempts to find his fortune in Moscow at the turn of the 20th-century. Only to find failure awaiting him. Before, at his lowest ebb, he finds his true calling in the home of a woman from his old village.
A widow with an opening for a servile and attentive retainer! Kurt Steiner's "A Journey to Disgrace", follows as we witness the fate of a divorced man. A man on a voyage to the East to put his cares behind him. And finds himself directly in the sights of an Indian stepmother and stepdaughter. A beauteous stepmother and a stepdaughter who, though falling a long way from the same description, is at least the mother's equal when it comes to evil. 2-Works of believable fantasy and female-led fiction in the classic style, for those readers who prefer to use the darker sides of their imaginations with the help of character-driven plotlines.
