O książce

In her incisive novel «Marriage,» Susan Ferrier adeptly navigates the intricate terrain of societal expectations surrounding love and matrimony in early 19th-century Scotland. The narrative unfolds through a blend of wit and keen social observation, showcasing Ferrier'Äôs precise prose and her ability to capture the era'Äôs complexities. With a satirical lens, she examines the motives behind marriage, revealing the tensions between personal desire and social compulsion, thus providing a rich commentary on the institution and its often hypocritical foundations. Ferrier'Äôs work fits within the broader literary context of the time, reflecting the influence of Romanticism while foretelling the emerging Victorian ideals of love and family dynamics. Susan Ferrier, an intellectual of her time and a keen observer of social customs, was intimately acquainted with the nuances of Scottish society. Growing up in a prominent family, her insights into the constraints imposed upon women in marriage are rooted in personal experience. Ferrier's own relationships, along with her literary circle, including ties with Sir Walter Scott, enriched her perspectives, ultimately igniting her passion to explore the complexities and contradictions of romantic unions. «Marriage» is a timeless exploration of the human heart and societal expectation, making it a must-read for anyone interested in the intersections of gender, tradition, and personal agency. Readers will find in Ferrier'Äôs narrative not only entertainment but also a profound understanding of the challenges that accompany the pursuit of true connection in an often judgmental world.
