Description

On Dinglefield Green, sisters Nelly and Martha, neighbour Mrs Mulgrave, and the arrival of Captain Llewellyn stir romantic tension and social rivalry through a web of village loyalties. Charm and sharp feeling share one green. Spoken as when neighbours on the green still ask what a small world will allow when love unsettles every door.

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.
