Om den här e-boken
Set against the backdrop of 19th-century British society, Mrs. Oliphant's "Madam" presents a nuanced exploration of gender roles and the complexities of female agency. Through the lens of its protagonist, the narrative intricately unravels the tensions between societal expectations and personal aspirations, all penned in Oliphant's distinctive style that masterfully combines realism with subtle psychological insight. The novel is imbued with a reflective quality, often drawing on the intricate dynamics of familial relationships and social norms, making it a poignant commentary on the lives of women during its time. Mrs. Oliphant, a prolific Victorian author, is renowned for her deep engagement with societal issues, often drawing from her own experiences as a woman writer navigating a male-dominated literary world.
