Orioles' Daughter is a novel written by Jessie Fothergill and published in 1892. The story is set in the English countryside and follows the life of a young woman named Oriole, who is the daughter of a wealthy landowner. Oriole is intelligent, independent, and headstrong, which sets her apart from the other women in her social class. She is determined to live life on her own terms and refuses to conform to the expectations of society.The novel explores themes of love, family, and class struggle. Oriole falls in love with a man named Guy, who is from a lower social class. Their relationship is frowned upon by Oriole's family and the rest of society, who believe that she should marry someone of her own class. Despite the obstacles, Oriole and Guy continue to love each other and fight for their relationship.Throughout the novel, Oriole also struggles with her relationship with her father, who is distant and cold towards her. She yearns for his love and approval but is constantly disappointed. As the story progresses, Oriole learns to rely on herself and finds strength in her own independence.Overall, Orioles' Daughter is a compelling story of a young woman's journey to find her place in the world and to love on her own terms. It is a timeless tale of the struggle between tradition and individuality, and the power of love to overcome societal expectations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
