The Village Idol is a novel written by Mrs. Henry Mackarness and first published in 1867. The story is set in a small English village and follows the lives of its inhabitants, particularly those of the wealthy and influential families. The central character is a young woman named Jessie, who is both beautiful and intelligent. She is courted by two men, one of whom is a wealthy landowner and the other a poor but ambitious young man. Jessie's decision between the two men is complicated by the social expectations of the time and the pressure put on her by her family and friends. Along the way, the novel explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations. The Village Idol is a classic example of Victorian literature, with its focus on character development and moral lessons. It is a charming and engaging read that provides a window into the world of rural England in the mid-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.
