Описание книги

The Heavenly Twins is a Victorian feminist novel which deals with issues of marriage, outlets for women's abilities and sexual morality. Following the affairs of three heroines, Evadne, Edith, and Angelica, the novel demonstrates the dangers of the moral double standard which overlooked men's promiscuity while punishing women for the same acts.

Part of the old gray palace at Morningquest had been a monastery. The walls were thick, the windows gothic, the bedrooms small, the reception rooms huge, as if built for the accommodation of a whole community at a time; and with unexpected alcoves and angles and deep embrasures, all very picturesque, and also extremely inconvenient; but Edith Beale, who had been born in the palace and grown up there, under the protection of the great cathedral, as it were, and the influence of its wonderful chime, was never conscious of the inconvenience, and would not, at any rate, have exchanged it for the comfort and luxury of the best appointed modern house. The Bishop of Morningquest and Mrs. Beale had three sons, but Edith was their only daughter, their white child, their pearl; and certainly she was a lovely specimen of a well-bred English girl
