Plot Summary
Penniless writer Angel Deverell (Romola Garai) meets wealthy publisher Théo (Sam Neill), who becomes an avid champion of her work. The resulting series of explicit romance novels makes Deverell a celebrity -- and catapults her into the upper echelons of English society. A self-made woman, Deverell marries struggling modernist painter Esmé (Michael Fassbender) and becomes his sole patron. But, as World War I fractures Europe, Deverell finds her marriage and career thrust into turmoil.
