Riassunto

Charlotte Temple is a naïve girl who is courted by an older man and brought to America where she is left alone, pregnant and afraid. It is a heartbreaking story about lost innocence, betrayal and prolonged guilt. Charlotte Temple is a 15-year-old girl from a loving British family who catches the eye of the charismatic soldier, John Montraville. With the help of Charlotte’s schoolteacher, Montraville is able to convince her to leave home and join him in America. Separated from her family, Charlotte falls on hard times when Montraville eventually abandons her. She is left alone and pregnant, unable to find support due to her child’s illegitimacy. Charlotte reaches out to her nobleman father hoping to be brought back into the family fold. Charlotte Temple is a love story that ends in unexpected tragedy. It is fueled by the neglect of a young girl, whose life is changed forever. With more than 200 editions produced in the U.S., Temple is considered Rowson’s most popular work. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Charlotte Temple is both modern and readable.
