East Lynne is a novel written by Mrs. Henry Wood, first published in 1861. The story is set in the mid-19th century and follows the life of Lady Isabel Vane, a beautiful and wealthy woman who marries the charming but irresponsible Sir Francis Levison. After discovering her husband's infidelity, Lady Isabel leaves him and her children to start a new life under a false identity as a governess in the household of her former love interest, Archibald Carlyle.As the story unfolds, Lady Isabel's past catches up with her and she is forced to confront the consequences of her actions. She becomes embroiled in a web of deceit and betrayal, and her secrets threaten to destroy not only her own life but also the lives of those around her. The novel explores themes of love, betrayal, class, and the consequences of one's actions.East Lynne was a hugely popular novel in its time and has been adapted into numerous stage plays, films, and television series. It is considered a classic of Victorian literature and remains a beloved and enduring work of fiction.Stealing to the portico from the house had come Barbara Hare, her eyes strained in dread affright on the grove of trees at the foot of the garden. What was it that had stepped out of that groove of trees, and mysteriously beckoned to her as she stood at the window, turning her heart to sickness as she gazed? Was it a human being, one to bring more evil to the house, where so much evil had already fallen?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
