Klassískar bókmenntir

D'Arcy's work is characterised by a psychologically realist style often attracting comparisons with Henry James and her determination to engage with themes such as marriage, the family, deception and imitation. Many of her stories also demonstrate the influence of her time in the Channel Islands, most notably "White Magic".

The critic August Nemo presents seven short stories specially selected:

- Irremediable

- White Magic

- A Marriage

- In Normandy

- The Pleasure-Pilgrim

- The Web of Maya

- An Engagement
