A Marriage Below Zero

Elsie Bouverie, a beautiful, naïve young woman, meets Arthur Ravener, whose shy demeanor suggests he will be a devoted, thoughtful husband. Soon after their marriage, however, Elsie grows suspicious of the nature of Arthur’s friendship with Captain Dillington, hiring a private investigator to discover the truth. A Marriage Below Zero is a novel by Alan Dale.

About the author

Alan Dale (1861-1928) was an English theatre critic, playwright, and novelist. Born Alfred J. Cohen in Birmingham, England, Dale moved to New York in 1887 and found work as a prominent theatre critic for the New York Evening World, New York Journal, and New York American, three prominent daily newspapers of the nineteenth century. Controversial for his frequently critical, often harsh reviews, Dale was a hit with readers and publishers while alienating himself from the theatre world. In addition to his criticism, he wrote four novels, including A Marriage Below Zero (1889), which is considered one of the earliest representations of homosexual romance in mainstream English literature.
