Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the life and struggles of Ursula, a resourceful young woman in the Victorian era. As an orphan, she sacrifices her own happiness to provide for her siblings, William and Roger. The bonds of family are tested when Roger decides to pursue his dreams in Canada, leaving Ursula to grapple with the challenges of maintaining their farm and supporting her troubled brother, William. The author weaves a tapestry of relationships and societal pressures, exploring themes of duty, sacrifice, and the complexities of love. Ursula's unwavering determination and compassion are contrasted with the selfishness of others around her, highlighting the moral dilemmas faced by women in a patriarchal society. Despite the hardships she endures, Ursula's journey is ultimately one of resilience and self-discovery. She learns to navigate the complexities of life, relying on her inner strength and the unwavering support of those who truly love her. This poignant and insightful narrative sheds light on the often-overlooked struggles and triumphs of women in the Victorian era, making it a valuable and thought-provoking read.

Both items good, on lightly-aged paper. Palmer's letter: 4to, 6 pp. Text clear and complete. He begins by apologising if his letter to her 'sounded very ungracious': 'I was unaware at the time that you had made any acknowledgement to me, and as I have had my brains picked so frequently without acknowledgment (including, of course, plagiarisms from my poems) I was again feeling rather depressed & exasperated'. While describing her book as 'really [.] very good' and 'reliable', he suggests a number of changes, giving examples of 'where we clash'. In a postscript he concludes 'I think we are both very good on the poets of the nineties. Your only serious weakness that you say nothing about Yeats. Mine that I clean forgot to point out that Le Gallienne was the best seller of the Rhymers' Club crowd. [.]' In the draft of her reply (4to, 2 pp), Cruse thanks him for his 'friendly criticism', before dealing with a number of the points he raises. She has 'not attempted anything like the complete detailed & critical survey of the Post Victorian poets' that he has given in his book, but has concerned herself 'with the readers rather than the writers; & my material being drawn largely from informal documents such as letters & diaries, it is likely that I have allowed some inaccuracies to come in'.
