She also wrote the extremely popular novels ‘The Edwardians’ and ‘All Passion Spent’, as well as scholarly non-fiction works.

    In this volume a young woman grows through and beyond erotic love to reach the love known as agape. 
    Poems of This Century is a book that rises from the human to explore the divine. Reflecting the joy of youth and the wisdom of age, shaped by the pain of the human condition, this poetry takes the reader on a journey of hope. 
    This book, in parts only too human and scattered with wry and humorous observations, is nevertheless an attempt to describe that intensified experience of the mystical called by others, the cloud of unknowing, the heat of love, the lightness of being, ecstasy, the peak experience. . .
