Produktbeschreibung
A quiet invitation to the drawing rooms and dim parlours of late nineteenth century America. Cecilia steps from the margins of society into the light of conscience, a classic american novel where romance and social constraint intertwine with precision and feeling. This is not merely a story of courtship; it is a portrait of gender roles expectations and high society manners pressed against a woman's resolve and wit. The narrative moves with restrained grace through turn of century America, offering the texture of daily life, social etiquette, and the quiet courage of a heroine who refuses to be perfectly conventional. It will resonate with readers seeking a public domain romance with modern relevance, and with classic romance enthusiasts who relish a thoughtful, character-driven arc rooted in historical romance fiction. Cecilia Of The Pink Roses carries literary and historical significance as a bridge between earlier Victorian sensibilities and the more expansive storytelling that Edith Wharton would soon champion. The prose rewards careful reading, revealing social codes that still echo in contemporary discussions of class and agency. This edition is designed for both casual readers and illustrated edition collectors, inviting anyone to discover a work that remains a cultural treasure and a touchstone of classical literature. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations, it is more than a reprint -- a collector's item and a cultural treasure for traditional and new readers alike.
