About this listen
"I don't want to be a 'good' woman. I want to be a free one."
In Quartet (otherwise known as Postures), Jean Rhys delivers a sharp, darkly atmospheric portrait of love, desire, and disillusionment in the bohemian circles of 1920s Paris. At the heart of the story is the fragile and lonely Marya, a young woman who finds herself entangled in a complex and volatile relationship with a married couple, Richard and Lois. As she grows closer to them, the boundaries of friendship, attraction, and betrayal blur, and Marya is drawn into a dangerous, unbalanced emotional triangle that threatens to destroy her.
Rhys’ trademark exploration of isolation and identity comes to the forefront as Marya navigates the seductive promises of passion and freedom, only to find herself ensnared in the complications of dependency and manipulation. The novel pulses with a sense of inevitability, as Marya’s yearning for independence collides with the dark realities of the world she inhabits.
