Colonel Enderby's Wife is a novel written by Lucas Malet and published in 1885. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the life of a young woman named Mary Enderby, who marries Colonel Enderby, a wealthy and respected man. However, Mary soon realizes that her marriage is not what she had hoped for, as her husband is emotionally distant and uninterested in her.As Mary struggles to find her place in society and in her marriage, she meets a young artist named Felix Graham, who becomes a close friend and confidant. As their friendship deepens, Mary begins to question her feelings for her husband and her own identity as a woman in Victorian England.The novel explores themes of love, marriage, gender roles, and societal expectations, and is considered a feminist work for its portrayal of a woman's struggle to assert herself in a male-dominated society. It is also praised for its vivid descriptions of Victorian England and its complex, multi-layered characters.Overall, Colonel Enderby's Wife is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a nuanced portrayal of the challenges faced by women in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
