Eleanor is a novel written by Mrs. Humphry Ward, first published in 1900. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Eleanor, who is the daughter of a wealthy and influential family in England. She is a strong-willed and independent woman, who desires to live her life on her own terms.The novel is set in the late nineteenth century and explores various social and political issues of the time, including women's suffrage, class differences, and the changing role of women in society. Eleanor's journey is one of self-discovery, as she navigates through the challenges of her privileged life and the expectations placed upon her.Throughout the novel, Eleanor confronts the limitations placed upon her by her gender and class, and struggles to find her place in a rapidly changing world. She is torn between her desire for independence and her duty to her family and society.Eleanor is a beautifully written and thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of human relationships and the challenges of personal growth and self-discovery. It is a timeless work of literature that continues to captivate readers today.The possessed, miserable look came back. She remembered that she hated me--that I had thwarted her. Yet I was able to persuade her to go back to her room. I promised that we would have more talk to-day. And when she had safely shut her own door--you know that tiled ante-room, that leads to her room?--I found the key of it, and locked it safely from outside. That's one access to her. The other is through the room in which Dalgetty was sleeping. I'd have given a good deal to warn Dalgetty, but I dared not risk it. She had not heard Alice go out by the ante-room, but she told me the other day the smallest sound in her own room woke her. So I felt tolerably safe, and I went to bed.--Eleanor! do you think that child saw or knew anything of it?'This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
