Edith Percival: A Novel is a work of fiction written by May Agnes Fleming and originally published in 1893. The story follows the titular character, Edith Percival, a young woman who is forced to confront a series of challenges and obstacles as she navigates her way through life in the late 19th century.As the novel opens, Edith is living a comfortable life with her wealthy parents in New York City. However, when her father dies suddenly, Edith is left to face the realities of life without his financial support. She is forced to take a job as a governess, which she finds to be a difficult and unfulfilling occupation.As Edith struggles to make ends meet, she is also faced with a series of romantic entanglements. She falls in love with a wealthy man named Harold, but their relationship is complicated by his jealous and possessive mother. Edith also finds herself drawn to a charming but unreliable artist named Philip, who is unable to provide her with the stability and security she craves.Throughout the novel, Edith must navigate these various challenges and make difficult choices about her future. She must decide whether to pursue a life of financial security and social status, or to follow her heart and pursue a more unconventional path.Overall, Edith Percival: A Novel is a compelling tale of love, loss, and self-discovery, set against the backdrop of late 19th century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
