The Duchess of Dreams is a novel by Edith Macvane, first published in 1908. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Lady Mary, who is the daughter of a wealthy aristocrat. Lady Mary is a dreamer who spends most of her time lost in her own thoughts and fantasies. She dreams of a life of luxury, romance, and adventure, far removed from the stifling conventions of her high society upbringing.One day, Lady Mary meets and falls in love with a handsome young man named Lord Arthur. However, their love is forbidden by society, as Lord Arthur is considered beneath Lady Mary's station. Determined to be with him, Lady Mary defies her family's wishes and elopes with Lord Arthur.The couple's happiness is short-lived, however, as they soon find themselves facing a series of challenges and obstacles. Lady Mary must confront the harsh realities of life outside of her privileged upbringing, while Lord Arthur struggles to provide for his new wife.As the story unfolds, Lady Mary must navigate the complexities of love, class, and societal expectations in order to find true happiness. The Duchess of Dreams is a compelling tale of love and adventure set against the backdrop of Edwardian England, offering a vivid portrayal of the social and cultural norms of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
