    The Woman With The Fan is a novel by Robert Hichens that was first published in 1904. The story follows the life of a young Englishman named Maurice Guest, who falls in love with a mysterious woman known only as ""The Woman With The Fan."" Maurice becomes obsessed with her and spends years trying to uncover her identity and win her love.The novel is set in London and Paris in the late 19th century, and explores themes of love, obsession, and the destructive power of desire. Hichens' writing is known for its vivid descriptions of the characters and the settings, and for its exploration of the psychological complexities of human relationships.The Woman With The Fan has been praised for its powerful storytelling and its exploration of the darker aspects of human nature. It has also been criticized for its portrayal of women, which some readers have found to be sexist and outdated. Despite these criticisms, the novel remains a classic of English literature and a fascinating exploration of the human psyche.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.

During the years of his not unpleasant servitude Amedeo had become a student of human nature. He had learnt to judge shrewdly and soundly, to sum up quickly, to deliver verdicts which were not unjust. And now, as he saw the omnibus, with its two fat brown horses, coming slowly along by the cab rank, and turning into the Piazza that is presided over by Cavour's statue, he prepared almost mechanically to measure and weigh evidence, to criticize and come to a conclusion.
