Omschrijving

Mrs. Hallam's Companion: And Other Tales is a collection of short stories written by Mary Jane Holmes and published in 1896. The book includes the title story, Mrs. Hallam's Companion, as well as six other tales. Each story centers around the lives of women in the 19th century, exploring their struggles, triumphs, and relationships. In Mrs. Hallam's Companion, a young woman named Fanny is hired as a companion to an elderly woman, Mrs. Hallam. Fanny soon discovers that Mrs. Hallam's family is hiding a dark secret, and she must decide whether to keep the secret or reveal the truth. Other stories in the collection include The Young Music Teacher, about a young woman who falls in love with her music teacher; The Christmas Guest, about a woman who invites a stranger to her home for Christmas; and The Old Maid's Story, about a woman who never married and reflects on her life choices. Overall, Mrs. Hallam's Companion: And Other Tales is a charming and insightful look into the lives of women in the 19th century, written by a popular author of the time. The stories offer a mix of drama, romance, and social commentary, making for an engaging read.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
