The Family : Mary Olivier: A Life
Mary Olivier: A Life
This novel is a lacerating account of the ties between daughter and mother. As a child, Mary's disposition and fierce intelligence set her apart from her Victorian family, especially her mother, who cannot hide her meager love for her only daughter. Mary grows up in solitude exploring her passions for literature, philosophy, and for the beauty of England's north country. But in time the independence Mary values— at almost any cost—threatens to become a form of captivity itself.
