About this book
In the early 20th century, societal norms dictated rigid class distinctions, yet "Master and Maid" by Mrs. L. Allen Harker challenges these conventions through its compelling narrative. The novel follows Tony Bevan, a housemaster at Hamchester College, and his unexpected guest, Lallie Clonmell, who disrupts the status quo during her stay while her father embarks on a big-game shooting expedition in India. As their worlds collide, themes of power dynamics and personal agency emerge, inviting readers to reflect on the complexities of human relationships. Ideal for students and civic activists, this thought-provoking work delves into the intricacies of class and gender, making it a vital addition to discussions on social structures and personal freedom.
