{"product_id":"the-life-and-death-of-may-sinclair-9781162670843","title":"The Life And Death Of Harriett Frean","description":"The Life And Death Of Harriett Frean is a novel written by May Sinclair. The book tells the story of Harriett Frean, a woman born into a wealthy family in Victorian England. As she grows up, Harriett is taught to value material possessions and social status above all else. She becomes obsessed with maintaining her family's reputation and doing what is expected of her.Despite her efforts to conform, Harriett's life is not without its struggles. She falls in love with a man who is beneath her station and is forced to choose between her heart and her social standing. She also experiences personal tragedy and must confront the realities of mortality.The novel is a critique of Victorian society and the values it upheld. It explores themes of conformity, materialism, and the limitations placed on women during this time period. The Life And Death Of Harriett Frean is a thought-provoking and poignant work of literature that offers a unique perspective on Victorian England.She tried to reinstate herself through grief; she sheltered behind her bereavement, affecting a more profound seclusion, abhorring strangers; she was more than ever the reserved, fastidious daughter of Hilton Frean. She had always thought of herself as different from Connie and Sarah, living with a superior, intellectual life. She turned to the books she had read with her mother, Dante, Browning, Carlyle, and Ruskin, the biographies of Great Men, trying to retrace the footsteps of her lost self, to revive the forgotten thrill. But it was no use.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
