L.E. Butler
Relief, a novel of deception

"Beautifully written . . . Relief  is about the
convoluted terrain of the heart."
M. Donsbach, Historical Novels Info

"Reminiscent of  Kate Chopin  and
Katherine Mansfield . . . hauntingly
beautiful."
Oscholars Theatre and Book Reviews

"Butler has written a rich, dense first novel
that envelopes the reader in early
20th-century Venice. "
Curled Up With a Good Book

"Butler's intimate, image-rich style kept me
reading at a fast pace.  Three acts of deceit
bring the novel to a surprising climax."
