About this book

In the vibrant backdrop of late 19th-century London, "Miss Cayley's Adventures" by Grant Allen unfolds the tale of Lois Cayley, a determined young woman navigating a society bound by rigid expectations. Armed with little more than her wits and a mere twopence, she defies convention in pursuit of adventure and self-discovery. As Lois encounters a cast of intriguing characters, she grapples with themes of independence and societal norms, challenging the constraints placed upon her gender. This captivating novel invites students and civic activists alike to explore the nuances of female empowerment during a transformative era. Discover how Lois's journey reflects the spirit of resilience and the quest for autonomy in a world that often seeks to limit it.
