The novel of adultery is a nineteenth-century form about the experience of women, produced almost exclusively by men. Bill Overton's study is the first to address the gender implications of this form, and the first to write its history.

Successive chapters deal with its development in France, and with examples from Russia, Denmark, Germany, Spain and Portugal.
