Beauty's Daughters is a novel written by Margaret Wolfe Hamilton Hungerford and first published in 1886. The story is set in Ireland and follows the lives of two sisters, Grace and Marion, who are both considered to be exceptionally beautiful. The novel explores the challenges and opportunities that come with their physical beauty, as well as the impact it has on their relationships with others.Grace is the elder sister and is described as being kind-hearted and gentle. Despite her beauty, she is not vain and does not seek attention. Marion, on the other hand, is more outgoing and enjoys the attention that her beauty brings. However, she is also more prone to jealousy and can be manipulative in her interactions with others.The novel follows the sisters as they navigate their relationships with men, including suitors and their own husbands. It also explores the dynamics between the sisters themselves, and the impact of their beauty on their family relationships.Throughout the novel, Hungerford also touches on themes of class and social status, as well as the role of women in society. The story is told in a romantic and sentimental style, typical of the Victorian era in which it was written.Overall, Beauty's Daughters is a compelling and engaging novel that explores the complexities of beauty and its impact on relationships and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
