Lolly Willowes : or, the loving huntsman by Sylvia Townsend Warner
"Lolly Willowes: or, the loving huntsman" by Sylvia Townsend Warner is a novel published in 1926. This satirical fantasy follows Laura Willowes, a middle-aged spinster trapped by family obligations in early twentieth-century London. Yearning for freedom, she escapes to a remote village in the Chiltern Hills, where she discovers an unexpected path to liberation. Blending social comedy with supernatural elements, the novel explores women's rebellion against societal constraints through an unconventional tale
of witchcraft, independence, and the price of true autonomy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
