Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Shirley, Vol. 2 of 3: A Tale
Shirley showed she had been sincere in saying She should be glad of Caroline's society, by frequently seeking it: and, indeed, if she had not sought it, she would not have had it; for Miss Helstone was slow to make fresh acquaintance. She was always held back by the idea that people could not want her: that she could not amuse them; and a brilliant, happy, youthful creature, like the heiress of Field head, seemed to her too completely independent of society so uninteresting as hers, ever to find it really welcome.
