Moth And Rust

Moth and Rust: Together with Geoffrey's Wife and the Pitfall is a novel written by Mary Cholmondeley and originally published in 1902. The book follows the story of a young woman named Dorothea who, after being left alone in the world, marries a man named Geoffrey as a means of finding security and stability. However, as their marriage progresses, Dorothea discovers that Geoffrey has a dark past and is not the man she thought he was.

These stories explore similar themes of love and betrayal and provide additional context and depth to the overall narrative.
