Its representation of the underside of domestic life and the hypocrisy behind religious enthusiasm drew both praise and bitter criticism, while Charlotte Brontë's striking expose of poor living conditions for children in charity schools as well as her poignant portrayal of the limitations faced by women who worked as governesses sparked great controversy and social debate. Jane Eyre, Brontë's best-known novel, remains an extraordinary coming-of-age narrative, and one of the great classics of literature. http://feedbooks.com/book/144.png http://feedbooks.com/book/144.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/144.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/144.mobi Howards End E.

Departing from literary convention, Kate Chopin failed to condemn her heroine's desire for an affair with the son of a Louisiana resort owner, whom she meets on vacation. The power of sensuality, the delusion of ecstatic love, and the solitude that accompanies the trappings of middle- and upper-class life are the themes of this now-classic novel. As Kaye Gibbons points out in her Introduction, Chopin "was writing American realism before most Americans could bear to hear that they were living it." http://feedbooks.com/book/342.png http://feedbooks.com/book/342.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/342.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/342.mobi Alexander's Bridge Willa Cather http://feedbooks.com/book/2103 urn:isbn:0517064936 en 1912 Novels This work is available for countries where copyright is Life+50 or in the USA (published before 1923). http://feedbooks.com/book/2103.png http://feedbooks.com/book/2103.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/2103.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/2103.mobi The Age of Innocence Edith Wharton http://feedbooks.com/book/93 urn:isbn:0375753206 en 1920 Novels The Age of Innocence centers on one society couple's impending marriage and the introduction of a scandalous woman whose presence threatens their happiness. Though the novel questions the assumptions and mores of turn of the century New York society, it never devolves into an outright condemnation of the institution. In fact, Wharton considered this novel an "apology" for the earlier, more brutal and critical, "The House of Mirth". Not to be overlooked is the author's attention to detailing the charms and customs of this caste. The novel is lauded for its accurate portrayal of how the nineteenth-century East Coast American upper class lived and this combined with the social tragedy earned Wharton a Pulitzer - the first Pulitzer awarded to a woman.
