Hardcover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Type: Hardback First Edition. Hardcover Ex-Lib Book in Good Condition. No Jacket. Ms Farnham's (1883-1957) three books set in the U. S. Midwest are probably her best works--"Rebellion"(1927); "Lost Laughter" (1933); and "Great Riches" (1934). She won a $10,000 prize for her first novel, "Rebellion". These stories portray marriage, small-town society and busyness adventures typical of their time. In "Great Riches" she depicts the rise of a young man in a country town, with domineering parents and scheming women. This story is set in a small pioneer Mid-Western town on the banks of the Missouri River. It is a story of the reactions of a charming masculine personality to the women who "furnish his background", told with insight into the emotions which make or break a sensitive individual. His problem of who would make a "better wife", is worked out through the lives of well-born, entertaining, and intelligent people, whome he looks upon as his own family.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Rebellion' is a poignant and incisive exploration of the friction between tradition and the burgeoning spirit of modern independence in the early 20th century. Set against a backdrop of rigid social expectations, the novel centers on the intense psychological and social conflict between a headstrong daughter and her domineering, patriarchal father. This narrative serves as a compelling character study that delves into the complexities of familial loyalty, the quest for personal autonomy, and the shifting moral landscapes of the era.The story captures the essence of a generation in transition, illustrating the challenges faced by women seeking to define their own paths in a world often governed by restrictive, old-fashioned values. Through vivid dialogue and keen emotional insight, the work depicts the internal and external battles of a young woman determined to break free from the stifling constraints of her upbringing. 'Rebellion' stands as a significant work of domestic drama, reflecting the broader cultural shifts of its time while remaining a timeless tale of the struggle for self-expression and freedom within the family unit.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
