Description

Mary Ochterlony’s struggle over marriage, honor, and pride carries past the first shock of doubt into later consequences for family standing and the costs of holding firm when society will not let the question rest. Spoken as when Madonna Mary’s second volume still asks what integrity can cost once the first refusal has already changed every future claim.

Author

Margaret Oliphant (1828–1897) was a Scottish novelist who wrote as if the rent depended on it — because it often did. Widowed young, she supported a large household with novels, biographies, reviews, and stories of the seen and unseen, becoming one of the Victorian age's most tireless professionals. Domestic realism, historical fiction, and ghostly tales all came from the same steady pen.
