The story of Emmeline Mosher, who, before her 14th birthday, was sent from her home on a farm in Maine to support her family by working in a cotton mill in Massachusetts. The year was 1839. An extraordinary novel from the NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of LOOKING FOR MR. GOODBAR, the story of a desperate young girl thrust into one of America's early industrial towns is a haunting tale of seduction.

In Perfidia, Judith Rossner brings her unparalleled talent for dramatically uncovering those disturbing emotions we keep hidden to an electrifying story of a mother and a daughter--and reveals the complex and intense undercurrents of hostility and competition that flow beneath every mother-daughter relationship. Maddy Stern wants more than anything to feel loved by her divorced mother, who lavishes attention on Maddy's half-brother and her lovers while alternately abusing and ignoring her daughter. Sexually voracious and dangerously self-absorbed, Anita Stern competes with the teenage Maddy over everything--achievements, looks, even men. With Maddy's affair with the seductive Geraldo, the threatened loss of control over the Santa Fe art gallery Anita has built up, and Maddy's planned departure for college, their home becomes a battleground that explodes into violence--and death. This is Judith Rossner's tenth novel and the first, since Looking for Mr. Goodbar, in which she has dealt with those forces in "ordinary" people that are so dark as to lead them to murder. Smart, desperately funny and shockingly real, Perfidia is simply impossible to put down.

Originally published in 1983, this bestseller is a compelling portrait of a young woman's experience in psychotherapy.

Her mother makes love to strangers and chooses the worst kind of friends. Her classmates talk of going to college, but Madeleine, with a scholarship waiting at an Ivy League school, knows that escape is unlikely. For Maddy's life revolves around one thing: her jealous, raging, promiscuous mother. And now that Maddy has a lover of her own, now that her mother's delusion-filled, grudge-filled, lover-filled life is crashing down around them, now that Maddy knows leaving would be the deadliest blow of all, there is only one way out: through a terrifying, disastrous moment that will change everything forever.... In her explosive novel Looking for Mr. Goodbar, Judith Rossner issued a chilling wake-up call to a generation intoxicated by sexual freedom. Now the New York Times bestselling author explores another fatal love: in this unforgettable novel of mother-daughter love gone torturously, tragically wrong.
