  1. 2976. Ellen Rogers by James T. Farrell

    Ellen Rogers is nineteen, pampered and playful, beautiful but bored, who finds tormenting boys more exciting than horseback riding or piano lessons. She has already twisted Bill Northrup around her fingers and discarded him, and now looks for a bigger game. Ed Lanson is good-looking, powerful and self-educated, with a brutal ego that can crush Ellen; his quotations from Swinburne and Nietzsche, studied lovemaking and calculated ruthlessness reduce her to a bewildered, love-sick girl.
