Mrs. Shelley is a biography written by Lucy M. Rossetti about the life of Mary Shelley, the author of the famous novel Frankenstein. The book explores Shelley's life, from her childhood to her marriage to Percy Bysshe Shelley, and her literary career. It delves into her personal struggles, including the loss of her mother at a young age, her tumultuous relationship with her father, and the tragic deaths of her children. The biography also sheds light on the cultural and political climate of the time, including the Romantic movement and the social constraints placed on women. Overall, Mrs. Shelley provides a detailed and insightful look into the life of one of the most influential female writers of the 19th century.In October Claire's departure for Florence, as governess in the family of Professor Bojti, where she went by the advice of her friend Mrs. Mason, formerly Lady Mountcashell, brought an end to her permanent residence with the Shelleys, although she was still to look upon their house as her home, and she visited them either for her pleasure or to assist them. Her absence from her friends gives us the advantage of letters from them, letters full of a certain exaggeration of affection and sympathy from Shelley, who felt more acutely than Mary that Claire might be unhappy under a strange roof.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
