The Woman Who Did is a novel written by British author Grant Allen in 1895. The story revolves around a young woman named Herminia Barton, who defies the norms of Victorian society by choosing to live independently and pursue her own desires, rather than conforming to the expectations of her family and society. Herminia is a strong-willed and independent character, who challenges the patriarchal norms of her time and fights for her own rights and freedom. The novel explores themes of gender roles, social expectations, and the struggle for personal autonomy in a society that values conformity and tradition. The Woman Who Did is considered a feminist classic and a landmark in the history of women's literature.This is the controversial book, about a woman who refuses to marry her lover because of stifling marriage laws, that Allen dedicated to his wife.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
