Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is set in 18th Century London and takes an in-depth look at the life of William Thornton, a Grub Street writer, and his relationship with his daughter, Antonia. Thornton was a man whose life took a strange turn after a failed attempt at the priesthood. His daughter, Antonia, is an intelligent and literary individual, who at the age of 20, becomes increasingly aware of her surroundings and her place within it. The author expertly weaves the characters into 18th Century London life vividly, demonstrating an intimate knowledge of the literary and social culture of the period. Through the characters, the author explores themes of love, class, and the nature of good and evil, with many of the story's male characters harboring secrets, and highlighting the lack of freedom experienced by women at the time. While focusing on the Thornton family, the book offers a compelling insight into the complexities of life at this time, providing a detailed look at the literary world, while also giving thoughtful consideration to the challenges of being a woman in this period.
