Marcella by Mrs. Humphry Ward
"Marcella" by Mrs. Humphry Ward is a novel published in 1894. It follows Marcella Boyce, a passionate Fabian Socialist forced to leave bohemian London for country life, where she becomes engaged to aristocratic Aldous Raeburn. When a desperate poacher murders a gamekeeper, Marcella's fierce defense of the working class strains her relationship with Aldous. Torn between idealistic socialism and practical reform, between passionate convictions and social duty, Marcella must navigate love, politics,
and the harsh realities of class inequality in Victorian England. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
