More about the book
Set against the backdrop of the late 19th century, the narrative follows a young, independent woman who marries a man of lower social standing. The novel explores themes of societal expectations and personal sacrifice, reflecting the challenges of its time. Initially facing difficulties in publication due to its bold subject matter, it was eventually released with edits to appease contemporary sensibilities. Over the years, it gained popularity and was reissued multiple times, culminating in a revised edition in 1938 that restored original content and enhanced the prose.
