		Cordelia's friendship with Izumi is also like this; it shows 'their pride', their bond of closeness, and then 'glides Into the grave' with Izumi's departure and later, Cordelia's death.
		Cordelia experiences the death of her mother, the loss of her first love, loss of friends, loss of parents, and even of self.

	What Little Girls Are Made Of
		Her focus, and the novel's, is all on the past, on those images that surface unexpectedly, relentlessly, amid the glitz of the transformed city, images of the dead, of a lost time, and of Cordelia, her childhood friend and tormentor, her double.
		Cordelia lives in one of the larger houses that have sprung up from the mud, a house with two stories, and a powder room, napkin rings, egg cups.
		Cordelia's doppelganger haunts Elaine's return to Toronto but at the retrospective itself her face does not appear among the crowd at the gallery, much as Elaine longs to see it.

	Cordelia's Honor (Hugo Winners) (Hugo Winners) by baen
		Heinlen wishes his first novel was half as good, and he is the grandfather of SF and the author of Stranger In A Strange Land, the most popular SF novel of all time.
		Cordelia and Aral are great characters, and the star-crossed lovers story works marvelously well, as does the messiness of Barrayar's politics.
		Cordelia and Aral get to deal with uprisings and political intrigue, not to mention the painfully vivid near-loss of their unborn son Miles.

	Penguin Reading Guides \| Cordelia Underwood \| Van Reid
		Upon learning that Cordelia and her family have found Uncle Basil's legacy to be more perilous than at first it seemed, the Moosepath League's chairman leads his exuberant cohorts to the Underwoods' aid.
		Like its Victorian antecedents, the novel was originally serialized in a local newspaper, forcing the author to keep the action moving and the characters memorable so that the readers would await the story's continuation with eager anticipation.
		In Van Reid's sequel to Cordelia Underwood, Mollie Peer, or The Underground Adventures of the Moosepath League, a throng of Moosepath originals return, from the wise, courtly Tobias Walton and the exuberant founders of the Moosepath League to the furtive Eustace Pembleton and his ragamuffin ward.

	Lois McMaster Bujold
		His mother, Cordelia Naismith, is a captain in the Beta Colony Expeditionary Force, and his father, Count Aral Vorkosigan, is the head of the house Vorkosigan on the planet Barrayar, and a prominent figure in its (imperial) government.
		Cordelia leads a mission to smuggle materials through to Escobar, and is subsequently captured by the Barrayarans, where she becomes wrapped up in a web of internal politics, narrowly escaping being raped, and meeting Aral again, who asks her to marry him.
		The disappointment here is that none of these novels is really outstanding, especially compared to their predecessors, Cetaganda and Mirror Dance; none is bad, but except for a few scenes, all of them have the feel of being almost "routine" Miles novels, quite remarkable considering the major shifts in Miles' life which they depict.

	Murder by Tradition - The Skull beneath the Skin
		Cordelia does through the course of the novel show keen insight and a pattern of logical thinking that gives her credibility but other times I think she seems weak and unsuited for the job she’s agreed to do.
		She begins by the fact that Cordelia is a woman and continues by allowing her to show qualities that society would deem feminine.
		On a separate note I was shocked to discover that P.D. James may have intentionally altered Cordelia’s character from the one in her first novel.

	John Passarella, Official Author Site - Angel: AVATAR
		Cordelia was sitting at her desk in the reception area of Angel Investigations in a sleeveless red crop top, fl jeans, and stiletto heels.
		Even though Cordelia complained about her inability to keep up with the latest fashions on her meager receptionist's salary, being around her always made Doyle feel as if he'd slept in his clothes, out on the street, in the rain.
		Cordelia had made it abundantly clear that she had relegated all demons to the enemy column.

		In Los Angeles, where everything's for sale, Doyle, Cordelia and Angel discover a young girl whose soul has been literally taken from her and they realise that the soul trade has hit the fl market.
		Cordelia and Doyle are not sure the clients - demon, albeit high-paying, that they are—can truly be trusted.
		Cordelia has got stars in her eyes now that she's rubbing elbows with Hollywood's elite, and Doyle's just relieved to have signed on a case that didn't start with a vision—and a blinding migraine.

	[No title]
		In her first trial by fire, Cordelia Naismith captained a throwaway ship of the Betan Expeditionary Force on a mission to destroy an enemy armada.
		Discovering deception within deception, treachery within treachery, she was forced into a separate peace with her chief opponent, Lord Aral Vorkosigan —he who was called "The Butcher of Komarr"—and would consequently become an outcast on her own planet and the Lady Vorkosigan on his.
		But when the Emperor died, Aral became guardian of the infant heir to the imperial throne of Barrayar —and the target of high-tech assassins in a dynastic civil war that was reminiscent of Earth's Middle Ages, but fought with up-to-the minute biowar technology.

	washingtonpost.com: Washington Post Book Club: An Unsuitable Job for a Woman
		Cordelia also inadvertantly causes the death of a third party by the end of her investigation and doesn't come clean when questioned by Scotland Yard's Inspector Adam Dalgliesh.
		Finally, Cordelia's solitude is what's most vivid to me about this novel: an orphan who's cut off from the concerns of her own generation, she's in line with the mystery tradition's other great solitary seekers after truth: Sherlock Holmes, Sam Spade, Philip Marlowe.
		Cordelia is alternately "hit on" or ignored at that party--indignities a Sam Spade would never have to suffer.

	The 11th Hour Web Magazine - Book Reviews - Angel: Close to the Ground
		Yes, Doyle is here and is extremely Doyle-ish in word and deed as he hits on Cordelia, hides from his bookie and helps in the protection of the innocent.
		Oh, and there is also a plot to this novel (sadly not involving the nakedness of Doyle at any point), and it's a fairly inventive one.
		He repeatedly called Cordelia "Cordy," for a start, which, as far as I'm concerned, is like the third sign of the coming of Angelus (the first, of course, being the leather pants, and the second being the naughty killing of people.) But it wasn't just that...

		Her husband is asked to serve as Regent for the child emperor of Barrayar and both Cordelia and Aral Vorkosigan have to deal with the plots and palace intrigues of their foes.
		An assassination attempt fails but seriously affects the growth and development of their unborn child, who will be the main character in most of the other volumes in the series.
		This is not faint praise; her last novel, The Vor Game, won the 1991 Hugo, and Falling Free won a Nebula in 1989...

		Elaine realises that Cordelia is still a part of her life, although she hasn't seen her for years and doesn't know where she is, and that in order to free herself from her memories, she must also free Cordelia.
		Cordelia's treatment goes beyond simple playground bullying, but is rather a cunning and manipulative psychological abuse that begins to take its toll on the young Elaine.
		As the power dynamics between Elaine and Cordelia shift as they stumble towards adulthood, it becomes clear that though the new Elaine is stronger on the surface, she is perpetually unable to escape the old fears and vulnerabilities of the past.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Elizabeth Inchbald
		She began by playing Cordelia to her husband's Lear and continued to act in a large number of characters until she retired from the stage in 1789.
		In 1791 she produced her first novel, "A Simple Story", which was successful at once.
		The story is one of much interest and pathos, and is simply and vivaciously told; it is one of the earliest specimens of the English novel of passion and has been very often reprinted (latest edition, London, 1908).

	Love Remembered, Ellen Fisher, author at New Concepts Publishing - Great Books for Less
		The main characters, Cordelia and Gwaltney, leap off the pages with their memorable personalities and chemistry; they are feisty and honest and will have readers laughing out loud over their attempts not to fall in love with each other.
		Cordelia needs a man who won’t let her rule him, a man who won’t let her get her way and browbeat him into submission, a man who won’t give in to her temper.” He coughed, embarrassed.
		Apparently Cordelia’s father had at least some control over the wayward young woman, because she flashed one final, acid-filled look at Gwaltney and stalked away haughtily, her chin held at an arrogant angle.

		In her 1956 novel, The Fountain Overflows, Rebecca West depicts a birthday party scene during which the adolescent female guests perform their accomplishments.
		The "family tragedy" Rose refers to is the split between the artist and the performer, and West's novel explores the relationships between the artists, Rose, her twin sister Mary, and their mother; the performer, their sister Cordelia; and the general publicís response to their music.
		Aware of this distinction between pianists and violinists, West consciously assigns the violin to Cordelia as a means of emphasizing the distance between Cordelia's performance and her sisters' art.
