The Woman With The Fan is a novel written by Robert Hichens, first published in 1904. The story is set in Venice, Italy, and revolves around a beautiful and mysterious woman named Madame Okraska, who is known for her stunning fan. The fan is said to have magical powers that can make men fall in love with her.The protagonist of the story is a young Englishman named Percy, who falls under Madame Okraska's spell and becomes obsessed with her. He is torn between his love for her and his duty to his fianc��e, who is waiting for him back in England.As Percy becomes more and more entangled in Madame Okraska's web, he begins to uncover the dark secrets of her past and the true nature of her power. The novel explores themes of love, obsession, and the dangers of giving in to temptation.Hichens' writing is known for its vivid descriptions of exotic locations and his ability to create complex characters. The Woman With The Fan is no exception, with its richly detailed portrayal of Venice and its inhabitants. The novel has been praised for its atmospheric setting and its exploration of the darker side of human nature.It was evident that Mrs. Ulford had been complaining to Sir Donald about his son's conduct. With whom? Lady Holme could not doubt that it was with herself. She had read, with one glance at the fluttering pink eyelids, the story of the Leo Ulford's menage. Now, she was not preoccupied with any regret for her own cruelty or for another woman's misery. The egoism spoken of by Carey was not dead in her yet, but very much alive. As she sat in the corner of the brougham, pressing herself against the padded wall, she was angry for herself, pitiful for herself. And she was jealous--horribly jealous. That woke up her imagination, all the intensity of her. Where was Fritz to-night? She did not know.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
