The Little Lady of the Big House (1915) is a novel by American writer Jack London. The story concerns a love triangle. The protagonist, Dick Forrest, is a rancher with a poetic streak (his acorn song recalls London's play, The Acorn Planters.). His wife, Paula, is a vivacious, athletic, and sexually self-aware woman (in one scene, she rides a stallion into a swimming tank, emerging in a white silken slip of a bathing suit that molded to her form like a marble-carven veiling of drapery.) Paula, like Charmian, is subject to insomnia and is unable to bear children. Based on a reading of Charmian's diary, Stasz identifies the third vertex of the triangle, Evan Graham, with two real-life men named Laurie Smith andAllan Dunn.
