**Praised as “sterling entertainment” by the *New York Times*, *A Mixture of Frailties* is the final novel in Robertson Davies’ wonderfully vivid Salterton Trilogy. Available as an eBook for the first time. **

*

“It’s a muddle, thought Monica. A muddle and I can’t get it straight. I wish I knew what I should do. I wish I even knew what I want to do…I want to go on in the life that has somehow or other found me and claimed me. And I want so terribly to be happy. Oh God, don’t let me slip under the surface of all the heavy-hearted dullness that seems to claim so many people…”*

*A Mixture of Frailties* is so much more than the story of Monica Gall's life in London and her education as a singer. It is an account of her education as a human being. The result is a vivid, comic, and frequently moving novel.* *

*A Mixture of Frailties *is the last novel in The Salterton Trilogy, after *Tempest-Tost* and *Leaven of Malice*.
