«Farouche Tamara» is the romantic novel by Elinor Glyn, published in paperback by J'Ai Lu in 1981, in French.
In imperial Russia, Tamara Loraine, a blonde and modest Englishwoman, travels to St. Petersburg invited by Princess Vera. There she meets Prince Mislavski, handsome and fiery, who vows to conquer her; she is scandalised and rebels. When he manages to take her to a hunting lodge, the moment of truth arrives for Tamara.
The work appears in the collection «Les romans préférés de Barbara Cartland» (no. 1264), with illustration by Étienne Lape.
Intended for readers of classic romantic fiction, especially followers of Barbara Cartland and French sentimental collections of the 1980s.
Elinor Glyn was a British novelist and scriptwriter who specialised in romantic fiction, which was considered scandalous for its time, although her works are relatively tame by modern standards. She popularized the concept of the "it girl", and had tremendous influence on early 20th-century popular culture and, possibly, on the careers of notable Hollywood stars such as Rudolph Valentino, Gloria Swanson and, especially, Clara Bow.
