The House On The Beach is a novel written by George Meredith, published in 1877. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Lucy Desborough, who is forced to leave her home due to her father's financial troubles. She moves to a small seaside town and takes up residence in a house on the beach. The house is owned by a wealthy and mysterious man named Adrian Harley, who becomes a source of fascination for Lucy. As she becomes more involved in his life, she discovers that he is hiding a dark secret. The novel explores themes of love, betrayal, and the consequences of keeping secrets. It is a poignant tale of a woman's journey towards self-discovery and the challenges she faces along the way. The House On The Beach is a classic work of Victorian literature that has stood the test of time and continues to be a beloved read for many.Annette did not shun him next morning.

He had forgiven a blow!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
