Ethel Mildmay's Follies: A Story is a novel written by Katharine King and first published in 1872. The story is set in England during the Victorian era and follows the life of Ethel Mildmay, a young woman who is forced to marry a man she does not love in order to save her family from financial ruin. Despite her unhappy marriage, Ethel remains determined to live life on her own terms and pursues her passion for music, much to the disapproval of her husband and society.The novel explores themes of love, marriage, duty, and the constraints of Victorian society. It also delves into the role of women in society and their struggle for independence and self-expression. The characters in the novel are well-developed and complex, with Ethel being a particularly strong and determined protagonist.Overall, Ethel Mildmay's Follies: A Story is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that provides a glimpse into Victorian society and the challenges faced by women during that time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
