Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book takes us back to a time when families lived in large, rambling houses and children were expected to be seen and not heard. The author paints a vivid picture of life in a Victorian household, focusing on the intricate relationships between a group of sisters and their parents. We meet Bessie, the eldest daughter, who is a pillar of strength and support for her mother and family, especially her fretful younger sister Hatty. The story unfolds as a young woman, Edna Sefton, unexpectedly joins the Lambert family after her train journey is disrupted by a snowstorm. Edna, a spoiled and fashion-conscious young woman, clashes with the more traditional values of the Lambert family, and her arrival challenges the existing social order of the household. As the story unfolds, the author explores the contrasting personalities and values of these young women, setting them against the backdrop of a society undergoing significant social change. The book offers an intimate glimpse into the inner workings of a Victorian family, highlighting the complexities of sibling relationships and the evolving role of women in society. Ultimately, the authorââ â¢s insightful portrayal of domestic life in this era reveals the enduring human need for love, understanding, and a place to belong.
