Book Description
"The Confounding of Camelia" by Anne Douglas Sedgwick is a novel about a young woman, Camelia. The story is based on interpersonal relationships and the social life of England in the 19th century. Excerpt: "WHEN Camelia came down into the country after her second London season, descended lightly upon the home of her forefathers, her coming unannounced, and as much a matter of caprice as had been her long absence, a slowly growing opinion, an opinion that had begun to form itself during Camelia's most irresponsible girlhood, became clearly defined, a judgment fixed and apparently irrevocable. The Patons had always been good, quiet people; absolutely undistinguished, were it not that the superlative quality of their tranquil excellence gave a certain distinction. "
