Love, above the reach of time
by
Anna M. Curren

The riveting narrative of this can't-put-down-book includes a passionate fictional, and the historic real story of Lady Eleanor Butler and the Honorable Miss Sarah Ponsonby: The Ladies of Llangollen, who were internationally famous from late 1700s to the early 1900s.

With their unprecedented elopement from Ireland in 1778 and their unapologetic 50 year open life together in the small Welsh town of Llangollen, The Ladies provided heady gossip for a society which until that time was woefully ignorant of the realities of female sexuality.

With sparkling personalities and no small measure of intellectual brilliance, The Ladies found themselves rapidly befriended by most of the notables of their era, not unlike the devotion inspired in the 1920s by America's own Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas.

Largely forgotten today, but famous for over a hundred years after their deaths, The Ladies are brought to sparkling life by our talented author. The fictional love story, history of female sexuality, real story of The Ladies' lives, sixteen pages of color photographs of their historic Welsh home, and the author's own journey in completing this classic work make captivating and unforgettable reading.
