Product Detail
When beautiful young Lucy Graham accepts the hand of Sir Michael Audley, her fortune and her future look secure. But Lady Audley s past is shrouded in mystery, and Sir Michael s nephew Robert has vague forebodings. When Robert s good friend George Talboys suddenly disappears, he is determined to find him, and to unearth the truth. His quest reveals a tangled story of lies and deception, crime and intrigue, whose sensational twists turn the conventional picture of Victorian womanhood on its head. Can Robert s darkest suspicions really be true?A publishing sensation in its day, Lady Audley s Secret is a thrilling novel of deception and villainy in which the golden-haired heroine is not at all what she seems. But it is not just a pot-boiler. Indeed, Mary Elizabeth Braddon s terrific plot touches on many contemporary social concerns, including class, madness, and the separate roles of men and women. Lyn Pykett s introduction illuminates Braddon s fascinating tale of bigamy, murder, impersonation, and blackmail in the context of the nineteenth-century sensation novel and Braddon s immensely successful career. Throughout the book, thorough notes elucidate literary and historical allusions and shed light on the social mores of the day. In addition, the book includes an up-to-date bibliography and a full chronology of Braddon s life and work.
Lady Audley s Secret was an immediate bestseller, and readers have enjoyed its thrilling plot ever since its first publication in 1862. This marvelous new edition introduces Braddon s portrait of her scheming heroine to a new generation of readers.
