Lady Roses Daughter
Mademoiselle Julie Le Breton is a complex, intelligent, ambitious woman secretly scheming to advance the career of a man she loves-but who is engaged to her cousin. She rebels against the subservient role she's forced to play in society, and hides her illegitimacy by concealing her outcast parents. She repeatedly refuses the proposals of a steadfast intellectual struggling against his upper class heritage, even though such a marriage would restore her to her rightful place in society.
As tumultuous events unfold, can Julie's impulsive, passionate nature be tempered? Initially serialized in Harper's Magazine , Lady Rose's Daughter became the best-selling novel of 1903. Mary Augusta Ward (died 1920) was a major literary figure of the early 20th century. Their work has endured across generations and continues to be read and studied worldwide. As a work of classic literary fiction, Lady Roses Daughter exemplifies the narrative craft and social insight that defined great storytelling of its era.
Literary fiction of this period was characterized by careful attention to character psychology, social milieu, and the moral questions that animated public discourse.
