This book, by the author of the highly acclaimed An Unnecessary Woman, is a profound examination of the lives of three maiden sisters and their younger brother, who, after many years of monotonous routine, finally find their lives turned upside down by the arrival of a wealthy furniture dealer. This sets in motion a series of events, both hilarious and poignant, as they all struggle to come to terms with their changing circumstances, their hopes, and their dreams. Set in the close-knit, gossipy world of Hamburg in the late 19th century, the author explores themes of spinsterhood, sibling rivalry, love, and the search for identity. How does one maintain one's individuality and sense of self amidst the expectations of society? The writing is vivid, psychologically astute, and wickedly funny, and the author shows a deep insight into the human condition, especially that of women who refuse to conform to the roles society has laid out for them. By turns thought-provoking and laugh-out-loud funny, this book will resonate with anyone who has ever felt different, yearned for more, or simply tried to make sense of life's unexpected turns. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
