Chastise My Deceitful Lady
Author: Cherry Redde
Publisher: Pink Cherry Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 426
Book Description
Three complete, full-length Victorian historical novels. Three spunky young women determined to rise above the painful challenges of a strict society to find their happily ever after. To Have and To Chastise: A Victorian Marriage of Convenience Romance: When her wastrel Earl of a father gambles away her hand in marriage, the beautiful Lady Henrietta Fallon claims she's already secretly wed to the handsome vicar. To protect the lady's reputation, Alfred Conley backs up the story in public―but he exacts his price in private. Any wife of his must be subject to domestic discipline, and he does not tolerate lies. The Duke's Daughter's Devious Double: A Victorian Switched Identities Romance: Born on the wrong side of the blanket, Sally switches places with her half-sister to sneak her way into a rigorous finishing school meant only for highborn young ladies. New headmaster Gerard believes in the power of domestic discipline to transform spoiled duke's daughters into proper young wives. But, in Sally, he may have met his match. Deceit and Discipline: A Victorian Lady in Disguise Heist Novel: Dolly Hughes is a mistress of disguise. When she poses as a mere snip of a maid to find a rare diamond, she becomes subject to an isolated manor's strange domestic discipline practices. Warning: This third book is not a traditional romance, and some may consider the larcenous Dolly to be a bit of an anti-heroine, but you may expect her to triumph in the end.

The Presidents of American Fiction
Author: Michael J. Blouin
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1501381725
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
The Presidents of American Fiction brings together American literature, history, and political science to explore the most influential fictionalized accounts of the presidency from the early 19th century to the time of Trump. Of late, popular understandings of the presidency are being radically re-written-consider, for example, the distinctive myths that accompanied the ascent of the Obama and Trump administrations-and many readers of all stripes are radically reimagining the office and its holder. Placing these changes within a broader cultural context, Michael J. Blouin investigates narratives involving fictional presidents, from the supposedly factual to the outright fantastical, within their distinct literary and historical moments. The author considers representative texts including works penned by James Fenimore Cooper from the Jacksonian moment, Gore Vidal in the age of Nixon and Vietnam, and Philip Roth in the neoliberal period. Through detailed readings that question how American presidents function as characters within the popular imagination, this book examines the presidency as a complex, ever-evolving trope, and in so doing enhances our appreciation of American literature's inextricable link with American politics.

The White Ladies of Worcester: A Romance of the Twelfth Century
Author: Florence Louisa Barclay
Publisher: Library of Alexandria
ISBN: 1465608249
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 560
Book Description
The slanting rays of afternoon sunshine, pouring through stone arches, lay in broad, golden bands, upon the flags of the Convent cloister. The old lay-sister, Mary Antony, stepped from the cool shade of the cell passage and, blinking at the sunshine, shuffled slowly to her appointed post at the top of the crypt steps, up which would shortly pass the silent procession of nuns returning from Vespers. Daily they went, and daily they returned, by the underground way, a passage over a mile in length, leading from the Nunnery of the White Ladies at Whytstone in Claines, to the Church of St. Mary and St. Peter, the noble Cathedral within the walls of the city of Worcester. Entering this passage from the crypt in their own cloisters, they walked in darkness below the sunny meadows, passed beneath the Fore-gate, moving in silent procession under the busy streets, until they reached the crypt of the Cathedral. From the crypt, a winding stairway in the wall led up to a chamber above the choir, whence, unseeing and unseen, the White Ladies of Worcester daily heard the holy monks below chant Vespers. To Sister Mary Antony fell the task of counting the five-and-twenty veiled figures, as they passed down the steps and disappeared beneath the ground, and of again counting them as they reappeared, and moved in stately silence along the cloister, each entering her own cell, to spend, in prayer and adoration, the hours until the Refectory bell should call them to the evening meal. This counting of the White Ladies dated from the day, now more than half a century ago, when Sister Agatha, weakened by prolonged fasting, and chancing to walk last in the procession, fainted and, falling silently, remained behind, unnoticed, in the solitude and darkness. It was the habit of this saintly lady to abide in her own cell after Vespers, dispensing with the evening meal; thus her absence was not discovered until the following morning when Mary Antony, finding the cell empty, hastened to report that Sister Agatha having long, like Enoch, walked with God, had, even, as Enoch, been translated! The nuns who flocked to the cell, inclining to Mary Antony's view of the strange happening, kneeled upon the floor before the empty couch, and worshipped.
