This 18th century novel revolves around the life of its female protagonist who lets her imagination rule the better part of her personality. The narrative is a slur on the romantic novels of the era and satirizes the genre for its fanciful approach. It is also a commentary on the delicate balance between the two sexes and their roles in society.

Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Charlotte Lennox was successful as a writer, and her work continues to be respected by feminists and scholars.She became friends with Samuel Johnson, and both Johnson and Samuel Richardson supported her and reviewed her work. Henry Fielding also praised the novel in print. Her later books, however, failed to bring her much revenue. She and her husband finally separated in 1793, and she lived on in poverty, entirely reliant on charitable support. She died in 1804.
