Anna Of The Five Towns: Cupid And Commonsense

Anna, a reserved and subtle woman of great integrity, lives with her overbearing and miserly father. Wooed for her money, Anna courageously defies her father’s wrathful indignation. But the complex passions aroused lead to tragedy and heartache. Set in the Potteries, this is a brilliantly perceptive novel of provincial life in Victorian England.
