Helena Mayfair is a posh, self-mythologizing raconteur whose lavish escapades always seem to end in exquisite disaster—though she remains blissfully unaware of her own downfall until it’s far too late. Equal parts tragic infatuation and champagne-fueled bravado, her monologues weave a dizzying tale of seduction, self-delusion, and the masochistic pleasure of being spectacularly, poetically undone.
