The Painted Lady, Benjamin Allen's debut novella, traces the serendipitous interaction between the royalty of an Empire and its criminality, as a deeply troubled man pursues knowledge about a woman who haunts his dreams. This novella is at once an allusive, lighthearted yarn, and a darkly poetic postmodern fantasy.
