The Field Of Clover

Viac o knihe

Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century society, the narrative follows Veronica "Vire" Leslie, a strong and self-reliant woman who inherits Clover Field after her father's death. Determined to challenge social norms, she transforms the estate into a utopian community focused on justice and equality. The story intricately weaves themes of gender roles, class differences, and the restrictions on women, all while incorporating elements of pastoral fiction, romance, and societal satire. Housman’s work reflects his commitment to social reform and progressive ideals.
