About this book
In the early 20th century, societal norms dictated the roles of women, often relegating them to the background of their own lives. In "Vera," Elizabeth Von Arnim masterfully explores themes of emotional entrapment and self-discovery through the lens of Lucy, a young woman mourning her father's death. As she navigates her grief, Lucy encounters the enigmatic Vera, whose influence challenges her understanding of autonomy and identity. This poignant narrative delves into the complexities of love and manipulation, inviting readers to reflect on the nature of personal freedom. Ideal for students and literary enthusiasts, "Vera" offers a rich exploration of character dynamics and societal expectations that remain relevant today.
