Title: Tale of the Oyster
Product review: Morton Fullerton, the only man to give Edie Whartona tickle, spent [almost] his entire life in Paris. Hewas the oyster who had a taste of society and societyhad a taste of him. (Let yer imagination go!, asBea Lillie admonished audiences).Mainwaring's 'creative' bio is of dizzying disorder.It reads like research, not a book. She asks Reader toaccompany her on sleuths to embassies and mayoral officeswhile she interviews. I thought she was ready to have anervous breakdown. Naturally I had to pursue every word.The players are fascinating. Morty had a m-f fan base,a brief secretive marriage and was blackmailed aboutletters fr Lord Gower - one of the UKs richest - andLady Margaret Brooke, the Ranee of Sarawark. Edie andH James helped pay off. As the oyster said, "Let's nottalk about love."
