Publisher's Synopsis

Vivian's Lesson is a novel written by Elizabeth Wilson Grierson in 1907. The story revolves around the life of a young girl named Vivian, who is raised in a wealthy and sheltered family in the late 19th century. Vivian is a beautiful and intelligent girl, but she is also quite naive and inexperienced in the ways of the world.As Vivian grows up, she becomes increasingly curious about the world outside of her privileged upbringing. She begins to question the values and beliefs that have been instilled in her since childhood and starts to explore new ideas and experiences. Along the way, she encounters a number of different characters who challenge her worldview and help her to grow and develop as a person.The novel explores themes of love, family, social class, and personal growth. It is a coming-of-age story that follows Vivian's journey from a sheltered and naive young girl to a confident and independent woman. Grierson's writing is both insightful and engaging, and her characters are well-developed and relatable.Overall, Vivian's Lesson is a timeless classic that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of the late 19th century and the struggles and triumphs of a young woman coming of age in that era. It is a must-read for anyone interested in historical fiction, coming-of-age stories, or simply a well-crafted and engaging novel.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
