Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian theatre and the social dramas that captivated audiences of the time. The story unfolds in the drawing room of a struggling gentleman, Digby Grant, whose financial woes are exacerbated by his two daughters, Lottie and I…da. The sisters, known as "Two Roses," are beautiful and charming but also headstrong and demanding. Grantââ â¢s desperate attempts to marry them off to wealthy suitors, in order to secure his own financial future, highlight the stark realities of class and gender expectations in Victorian England. The author masterfully blends humor and pathos as he explores the complexities of love, money, and social mobility. Through a cast of memorable characters, including the blind but insightful Caleb Deecie and the boisterous dry-goods salesman Mr. Jenkins, the book satirizes the conventions of Victorian society, exposing the hypocrisy and absurdity of its social hierarchies. Ultimately, the book's insights into the motivations and anxieties of Victorian society offer a rich and revealing portrait of a world on the cusp of change, a world where the pursuit of wealth and status often overshadowed deeper human needs and desires.
