Yet the reputation of her long-neglected masterpiece &&LI&&RWives and Daughters&&L/I&&R continues to grow, fulfilling Henry James's prophecy that the novel would continue for years to come to be read and relished . . .so delicately, so elaborately, so artistically, so truthfully, and heartily is the story wrought out. &&LBR&&R&&LBR&&RAn enchanting tale of romance, scandal, and intrigue in the gossipy English town of Hollingford around the 1830s, &&LI&&RWives and Daughters&&L/I&&R tells the story of Molly Gibson, the seventeen-year-old daughter of a widowed country doctor. When her father remarries, she forms a close friendship with her new stepsister-the beautiful and worldly Cynthia-until they become love rivals for the affections of Squire Hamley's sons, Osbourne and Roger. When sudden illness and death reveal some secrets while shrouding others in even deeper mystery, Molly feels that the world is out of joint and it is up to her-trusted by all but listened to by none-to set it right.&&LBR&&R&&L/P&&R&&LP style= MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt &&R&&LSTRONG&&RAmy M.
