Sir Aubyn's Household: A Plain Unvarnished Tale is a novel written by an author who goes by the pseudonym Sigma. Originally published in 1878, the book is set in England and follows the lives of the members of Sir Aubyn's household. The story is narrated by a young woman named Ruth, who is hired as a governess to Sir Aubyn's children. Through her eyes, we see the inner workings of the household and the relationships between the various characters. Sir Aubyn is a wealthy and respected man, but he has a troubled past that continues to haunt him. His wife, Lady Aubyn, is a proud and aloof woman who is not well-liked by the staff. As Ruth becomes more involved in the lives of the household members, she uncovers secrets and scandals that threaten to tear the family apart. She also finds herself falling in love with Sir Aubyn, despite his past and his complicated relationship with his wife. The novel is a classic example of Victorian literature, with its focus on social class, morality, and the role of women in society. It explores themes of love, betrayal, and redemption, and offers a glimpse into the lives of the English upper class during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
