Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an autobiographical tale of life in a large Victorian family. The author, who remains nameless in the text, narrates her early life from childhood through to adolescence. Her experiences are framed within the domestic sphere, and she records the lives of her parents and siblings as well as her governess. Everyday trials and tribulations of family life are humorously described and contrasted with the more extraordinary events surrounding the family, such as the accidental death of the author's mother in a mountaineering accident. The author presents a vivid picture of family life in the mid 19th century, when large family sizes were commonplace and the family was considered the most important unit of society. A valuable historical insight into the lives of Victorian middle classes, the book also explores how, even after death, the actions of one family member can continue to shape the lives of those left behind. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331740162_0
