Gabriel (1856) is a novel written by Bessie Rayner Parkes Belloc, which follows the story of Gabriel, a young man who is torn between his love for a woman and his duty to his family. Set in the mid-19th century, the novel explores themes of class, gender, and social expectations in Victorian England. Gabriel is the son of a wealthy merchant and is expected to follow in his father's footsteps by entering the family business. However, Gabriel's true passion lies in the arts, and he dreams of becoming a painter. When he meets and falls in love with a woman from a lower social class, he must choose between his duty to his family and his own desires. The novel also delves into the struggles of women in Victorian society, as Gabriel's love interest faces societal pressure to conform to traditional gender roles. Through Gabriel's journey, the novel highlights the complexities of love, duty, and societal expectations in a rapidly changing world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
