Viac o knihe

Set in the late 19th century, the story follows Bertha Ley, a well-educated woman of independent means who chooses to marry Edward Craddock, her steward, much to the dismay of her guardian. As Bertha navigates her new life, her traditional views on womanhood clash with her desire for knowledge and appreciation of European culture, particularly Italy's rich heritage. Maugham explores themes of class, independence, and the complexities of marriage through Bertha's journey.
