More about the book

Set during the transformative Golden Age of the bicycle (1890-1905), the novel explores the societal shifts brought about by the newfound accessibility of bicycles. This innovation allowed individuals of modest means to travel freely and affordably, breaking away from the constraints of railway schedules. The narrative highlights how this mobility not only fostered a culture of leisure travel but also challenged the rigid English class system and significantly advanced the movement for female emancipation, reshaping social dynamics in England.
