Description
THE VICTORIAN CHAISE-LONGUE FROM PERSEPHONE BOOKSThe Victorian Chaise Longue first came out in 1953. It is a very short book, almost a novella, about a young married woman who lies down on a chaise longue and wakes to find herself imprisoned in the body of her alter ego ninety years before. Lisa Appignanesi has described it as 'rare instance of what one could call Gothic realism'. It also impressed Penelope Lively: This is time travel fiction, but with a difference disturbing and compulsive instead
The Victorian Chaise-Longue first came out in 1953. It is a very short book, almost a novella, about a young married woman who lies down on a chaise-longue and wakes to find herself imprisoned in the body of her alter ego ninety years before. Lisa Appignanesi has described it as 'rare instance of what one could call Gothic realism'.
It also impressed Penelope Lively: ‘This is time travel fiction, but with a difference… disturbing and compulsive... instead of making it into a form of adventure, what Marghanita Laski has done is to propose that such an experience would be the ultimate terror… so Melanie/Milly clings to the belief that she is dreaming for as long as she possibly can; the point at which she is forced to abandon this comfort and search for other explanations is her plunge into nightmare.... In the stifling, menacing atmosphere in which Melanie finds herself there is another dark, unspoken theme. Sex. Milly has been in some way disgraced… Once again the chaise-longue is the hinge between the two planes of existence. The site of rapture, of ecstasy – that is the implication…’

Inexpensive and Nice Quality
Size: Standard (Pack of 2), Style: Medium, Configuration: Pillow
I was hoping there would be more of a firmness to these pillows, however they are more soft than I was expecting them to be. Id recommend these pillows for someone who wants a fairly non firm pillow.

Not for side sleepers
Size: Standard (Pack of 2), Style: Medium, Configuration: Pillow
These pillows are quite soft and flat, and offer very little support. I sleep on my side and can't use these pillows. I don't know why they're recommended for side sleepers.
