About this eBook

Author Le Feuvre, Amy, 1861-1929
Title The making of a woman
Original Publication London: The Religious Tract Society, 1909.
Summary "The Making of a Woman" by Amy Le Feuvre is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows the journey of Jean Desmond, a spirited young woman constrained by her strict grandfather and the oppressive environment of her marshland home. As she grapples with her passion for painting, she feels the call for freedom and self-discovery, leading her to contemplate what it truly means to become a woman in a world that seeks to limit her potential. At the start of the book, we meet Jean, who feels stifled in her current life with her grandfather, Mr. Desmond, who imposes strict control over her education and interests. Jean’s longing for art and expression is clear as she reminisces about her deceased mother, a painter, and her attempts to rebel against her grandfather's oppressive rule. The atmosphere around her is depicted as stagnant and dreary, mirroring her internal struggles. As she yearns for a more vibrant and fulfilling life filled with creative pursuits, Jean finds the courage to take steps towards independence, ultimately leading her to seek a new life away from her constraining upbringing.
