Marcella (novel)
''Marcella'' is a novel by Mary Augusta Ward, first published in 1894. Background The novel was inspired by the Ward family's move to Stocks House in the Summer of 1892. Stocks House was the home of Mary Ward and her husband Humphry from 1892 to 1922, and was a large Georgian manor house in the village of Aldbury in Hertfordshire. The sudden shift from suburban to rural life proved to be quite a shock, especially as they were forced to confront the rise in criminality due to the agricultural depression of the mid-1890s. Soon after her initial visit to Stocks House, she wrote a preliminary outline of ''Marcella'' on half a piece of paper, heavily drawing on her experiences moving to the countryside. Harry Wharton, the socialist who is revealed to have a corrupt personal life, is believed to be partially based on Charles Stewart Parnell. Synopsis Marcella Boyce is a young woman living in the Bohemian circles of London. A passionate member of the Fabian Society, she is forced t ...

Piqué fabrics vary from semi-sheer dimity to heavy weight Waffle fabric, waffle cloth. Twilled cotton and corded cotton are close relatives. Name The name ''piqué'' is derived from the French language, French word , meaning 'quilt'; late 18th-century piqué fabrics were considered to imitate a hand-made quilt. Piqué weave The weave is closely associated with white tie, and some accounts even say the fabric was invented specifically for this use. It holds more starch than plain fabric, so produces a stiffer shirt front; piqué shirts would go on to replace earlier plain-weave fronts, which remain a valid alternative.

Background Detroit aka Levy began working on her debut solo album with producer David Foster in the mid-1970s signed to RSO Records, whilst she was touring with Eric Clapton.
