The Little Lady of the Big House Customer Reviews
:- 3.0 out of 5 stars from JP -- The story itself did eventually draw me in (when is a love triangle ever boring : Had a hard time getting into the story. Dick Forrest came off as unrealistic and weirdly idealized with his ranch and his hyper-efficiency and loads of money and joviality. But as a look into another time and London's version of an ideal world, it was interesting. The story itself did eventually draw me in (when is a love triangle ever boring?) and overall thought the book was okay. ( Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2015 )

- 3.0 out of 5 stars from Natalia Williams -- Tragic ending : So so very sad. Kinda hard to read but I did it and the ending broke my heart. Very similar to Fitzgeralds Gatsby. ( Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2017 )

- 1.0 out of 5 stars from J. Grogan -- Horrible binding : When I received this book, the binding was broken and it looked like it was printed from a printer with poor quality paper. I sent it back and asked for a new one. When I received the next one, it also poor quality printing but the binding was not broken. During the first reading of the book, pages fell out and the binding broke. I will never buy from this store again. ( Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2010 )
- 3.0 out of 5 stars from Karl JanssenTop Contributor: Fantasy Books -- Love among the flawless : Dick Forrest owns a sizeable chunk of farmland in northern California. A thoroughly modern agriculturalist, he raises all manner of livestock and crops, all of the highest quality, using the latest, most advanced scientific methods. Ensconced within these fertile lands is his home, a palatial estate combining the best of traditional and modern architecture. In his youth Dick led a life of adventure, and now that he has put down some roots, he applies the same adventurous spirit to his agricultural ventures. Sharing in this pleasant and prosperous life is his wife Paula, an exceptionally attractive woman who likewise succeeds at all she touches. She plays piano like a professional pianist and breeds horses like a professor of animal husbandry. This remarkable couple surrounds themselves with a rotating entourage of family, friends, and scholars. Every night is a dinner party in which wine and song are accompanied by spirited debates on various and sundry topics. Thus the reader is treated to chapters on philosophy, music, poetry, animal husbandry, and--not uncommon for London--the superiority of the white race. Into this eclectic intellectual enclave wanders Evan Graham, an old friend who is described as being almost exactly like Dick, but a bachelor. He quickly develops an attraction towards Paula, admires her secretly, and tries to ascertain if the feeling is mutual. ( Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2013 )
- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Lila -- Please read it! : Very good book - and typically for Jack London it is about strong people and strong feelings. ( Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2003 )
- 4.0 out of 5 stars from jacqueline -- The Little Lady of the Big House - Jack London : Wow! I absolutely loved this book! The main character is an amazingly compelling man, powerful, daring, kind and just. From a privileged background, he carves for himself an incredible world, all of his own making, a unique man. One cannot help but turn the pages, and love everything within this book. It tells of adventure, and the creation of something of an empire, which appears almost perfect. Almost. Colourful personalities drift in and out, giving science and the arts an equal airing, alongside the excitement of invention and the boldness of experimentation that could make or break a business. I have to admit that the last pages had me in tears. Definitely an author I will return to! ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 13, 2011 )
