About this book
In the early 20th century, societal norms were shifting, and women sought new avenues for self-expression and independence. "Mistress Anne" by Temple Bailey introduces readers to Anne Warfield, a schoolteacher who grapples with her yearning for a richer existence amid the constraints of her time. As she navigates her relationships with the eclectic residents at Peter Bower's lodge, themes of personal fulfillment and emotional isolation emerge. This novel intricately explores the nuances of longing and connection, making it a compelling read for students of literature and civic activists interested in the evolution of women's roles. Discover how Anne's journey reflects the broader quest for autonomy in a rapidly changing world.
