Book Overview
A Daughter of Heth is a novel published in 1871 by Scottish author William Black. The story follows the life of a young woman named Gwendoline Grahame, who is the daughter of a wealthy English merchant. After her father's death, Gwendoline is sent to live with her aunt and uncle in Scotland, where she falls in love with a young doctor named Frank Wentworth. However, their relationship is complicated by Gwendoline's family's disapproval and Frank's own secrets. The novel explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations in Victorian England and Scotland. Through Gwendoline's journey, Black offers a critique of the rigid social norms of the time and the limitations they placed on women's lives. A Daughter of Heth is a classic example of Victorian literature and a compelling read for anyone interested in the period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
