Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Chloris is a novel written by William Smith and published in 1877. The story follows the life of Chloris, a young woman who is orphaned at a young age and raised by her uncle in the English countryside. Chloris is a spirited and independent young woman who longs for adventure and excitement. She is also deeply passionate and falls in love with a young man named Edward, who shares her love of nature and the outdoors.As the story unfolds, Chloris and Edward's relationship is tested by the social norms and expectations of their time. They must navigate the complex world of Victorian society, which values propriety and conformity above all else. Along the way, they encounter a cast of colorful characters, including a wealthy landowner who is determined to marry Chloris, a scheming governess, and a group of bohemian artists who challenge their beliefs about art and beauty.Through it all, Chloris remains true to herself and her passions, even as she struggles to find her place in a world that often seems at odds with her values. The novel is a rich and detailed portrait of Victorian England, filled with vivid descriptions of the landscape, architecture, and social customs of the time. It is also a powerful exploration of the human heart, and the ways in which love and passion can both uplift and challenge us.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
