Book excerpt: Alice Denham's My Darling from the Lions portrays the passionate conflict between a young painter and her macho composer husband, their lovers, her female rage, his brutality, and her struggle for self-realization as an artist. The Sunday New York Times Book Review said, "When Miss Denham is being lyrical she is capable of some really incredible language." The Raleigh News & Observer said, "Grace is very much a female animal given to bestial and sensual passions for Carl. Carl can't possibly love her as much as she loves him, so she finds out in a soul-rending experience."
