The novel (I own the very copy you pictured) read more like the type of novel Fanny Burney would write although obviously much shorter. Waay too melodramatic for my taste when I read it, but I might find it funny now. I think it is interesting to read different styles from the same author. I enjoyed A Long Fatal Love Chase (it was considered to scandalous to publish although I didn't think it was; the heroine thought she was married but had been tricked as far as I remember). I would stay away from her short stories, some of those are bad; the exact type of things Jo gets in trouble with Mr. Bauer for writing!Livia Rachellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02755623391278276925noreply@blogger.com
