More about the book

The story follows eighteen-year-old Charity Royall, a librarian in the dull town of North Dormer, where she feels trapped under the care of Lawyer Royall. Her life takes a turn when she encounters Lucius Harney, a visiting architect, sparking her sexual awakening. The narrative explores themes of desire and entrapment, drawing parallels to Wharton's more famous work, Ethan Frome, as Charity navigates her feelings and the constraints of her small-town existence.
