Publisher's Synopsis

""Wee Wifie"" is a novel written by Rosa Nouchette Carey and published in 1906. The story revolves around a young woman named Winifred Vane, who is known as ""Wee Wifie"" due to her petite size. She marries a wealthy older man named Sir John Kirke, who is kind and loving but also possessive and controlling. Winifred struggles to balance her own desires and interests with those of her husband, who expects her to be a perfect wife and companion. Along the way, she must navigate complex relationships with her family and friends, as well as confront the societal expectations placed upon her as a woman in the early 20th century. The novel explores themes of love, marriage, gender roles, and societal norms, and offers a window into the lives of upper-class British society during this time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
