A Life's Morning is a novel written by George Gissing, first published in 1888. The story follows the life of a young woman named Clara Middleton, who is forced to leave her home and live with her estranged father after her mother's death. Clara struggles to adapt to her new surroundings, which are vastly different from her previous life of comfort and privilege. She finds solace in a friendship with a young man named Vernon Whitford, who introduces her to radical ideas about society and politics. As Clara navigates the challenges of adulthood, she must confront the harsh realities of the world around her and make difficult choices about her future. A Life's Morning is a poignant exploration of the complexities of growing up and coming of age in a changing world.So Miss Hood -- Emily, as she was called by the little group of people away in Yorkshire, to whom she was other than a governess; Emily; as we will permit ourselves to call her henceforth -- always had the meal of tea with the children. After that the evening was her own, save that the twins kept her company until their hour of bedtime. The school-room was also her sitting-room. After half-past eight in the evening she had it to herself, and there she passed many an hour of quiet content, playing softly on the piano, reading, dreaming.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
