Publisher's Synopsis
A Grass Widow is a novel written by Richard Edward Boyns and first published in 1919. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Vida who becomes a widow at a young age. She is left alone with her child and has to navigate through the challenges of being a single mother in a society that does not readily accept such a situation. Vida's struggles are compounded by the fact that she is also a grass widow, a term used to describe a woman who has been abandoned by her husband. The novel explores themes of love, loss, and the role of women in society. It portrays the struggles of a young woman trying to make a life for herself and her child in a world that is often hostile to those who do not conform to traditional gender roles. The book provides a glimpse into the social and cultural norms of the time and offers a poignant commentary on the challenges faced by women in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
