This is an automatically translated description
The book by the remarkable American novelist John O'Hara, written in 1935, is about the life catastrophe of a young woman who is promiscuous in her love affairs. This novel, extremely vivid and emotionally intense, is the basis for the film starring Elizabeth Taylor, who won her first Oscar for it. The story of the hunted, spiritually crippled beauty Gloria Wenders, whose only entertainment is casual affairs with unfamiliar wealthy men, reads even today as if it was written yesterday. The reason is simple - the writer does not embellish or romanticise the complex characters of his characters and their intricate, contradictory relationships.
