Green Pleasure and Grey Grief is a novel written by Margaret Wolfe Hungerford and first published in 1886. The book tells the story of a young woman named Lady Gwendoline Trafford who is forced to marry a man she does not love in order to save her family's estate. She soon discovers that her new husband is cruel and abusive, and she finds solace in the company of a kind and gentle man named Frank Vincent. As Lady Gwendoline struggles to navigate the complexities of her marriage and her feelings for Frank, she must also contend with the social expectations and restrictions placed upon her as a woman of her time. The novel explores themes of love, duty, and the limitations placed upon women in Victorian society. Hungerford's writing is characterized by its vivid descriptions of the natural world and its nuanced portrayal of complex emotional states. Green Pleasure and Grey Grief is considered one of Hungerford's most popular and enduring works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
