Daisy Kenyon — Elizabeth Janeway
A Story of Three Loves
This is the story of three people who try to find happiness in the turbulent world of the 1940's. Daisy Kenyon is attractive, red-headed, and single. She is a Minnesota farm girl who has become a successful artist for fashionable women's magazines. Dan O'Mara, Daisy's lover for eight years, is a fiery, blue-eyed Irishman who has risen to the top in the legal profession. He has a wife and two daughters; he is rich and well known in New York and Washington; but in his private life Daisy is his only satisfication.
The long-standing affair between Daisy and Dan is disrupted when Peter Lapham, editor of a large magazine, falls violently in love with Daisy. The story of the crisis in the personal lives of these three successful people is told with the passionate realism and understanding that made the author's first book, The Walsh Girls, a best seller.
