Excerpt from Love and Money: An Every-Day Tale
Ann could not exactly tell whether she was hand some or not, but she had seen her sure enough, for she had contrived to be in the entry when they got out of the chaise, and she had heard her speak too she had heard her say, and there is a black and white straw basket, George - that was Mr. Morland, for she knew that his name was George: she seemed to stand a good height too, and by her figure Ann would fancy she was handsome.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the impactful story of Mrs. Morland, a woman whose recent arrival in a new town uncovers both her own personal struggles and the complexities of the community she has entered. While on the surface Mrs. Morland's life appears enviable, the author cleverly reveals the contrast between appearances and reality, highlighting themes of independence, love, and the strength of the human spirit in overcoming adversity. The author explores the harsh realities of the Victorian-era social dynamics and gender roles through Mrs. Morland's encounter with a hypocritical and judgmental society. Her relationships with the townspeople, including her husband, neighbors, and a young woman named Mary Wheeler, serve as a microcosm of the social landscape of the time, which was often defined by gossip, social hierarchy, and economic disparities. Through the lens of Mrs. Morland's experiences, the book raises thought-provoking questions about the nature of true happiness and the importance of understanding others before making judgments. The author's ability to depict the complexities of human relationships and the power of resilience in the face of adversity makes this a compelling and insightful read.
