Bag om Elinor Wyllys V1

Elinor Wyllys is a novel written by Susan Fenimore Cooper and published in two volumes. The first volume follows the story of Elinor Wyllys, a young woman from a wealthy family who is forced to navigate the complexities of high society in early 19th century America. Elinor is intelligent, independent, and determined to find her own path in life, but she is also vulnerable to the pressures and expectations of her social class.As the novel unfolds, Elinor finds herself caught up in a web of romantic intrigue and political maneuvering, as various suitors and rivals vie for her attention and affection. Meanwhile, she must also contend with the challenges of maintaining her independence and integrity in a world where women are expected to be subservient and obedient.Throughout the novel, Cooper explores themes of love, class, gender, and power, offering a nuanced and complex portrait of early American society. With its vivid characters, richly detailed setting, and engaging plot, Elinor Wyllys is a compelling work of historical fiction that will captivate readers of all ages and backgrounds.Jane, too, left Elinor a few days later; and Miss Wyllys, who had charge of her--as Mr. and Mrs. Graham lived in Charleston--placed her at one of the fashionable boarding schools of New York. Miss Adeline Taylor had, in the mean time, informed her parents that she had changed her mind as to the school which was to have the honour of completing her education: she should NOT return to Mrs. A-----'s, but go to Mrs. G-----'s--.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
