Beschreibung

In "Misunderstood," Florence Montgomery crafts a poignant narrative that delves into the complexities of youth, isolation, and the quest for understanding. Set against the backdrop of Victorian England, Montgomery's prose is characterized by its lyrical quality and keen psychological insight, allowing readers to engage deeply with her protagonist, a young boy named John. The novel explores themes of social conformity, familial expectations, and the often harsh judgments of society, reflecting the broader literary movements of its time, such as realism and the moral didacticism prevalent in the Victorian era. The intricate character development and vivid descriptions create a rich, immersive reading experience that invites contemplation on the essence of identity and belonging. Florence Montgomery, an influential figure in the late 19th-century literary scene, drew upon her own experiences and observations to shape the narrative of "Misunderstood." Born into a family with literary ties, her upbringing provided a lens through which she could examine societal norms and individual struggles. This personal connection to her characters and themes is evident throughout the work, as she reflects on the feelings of alienation and the yearning for acceptance that plagued many during her time. I wholeheartedly recommend "Misunderstood" to readers seeking a nuanced exploration of adolescent turmoil and societal critique. Montgomery's evocative storytelling not only captures the essence of its historical context but also resonates with contemporary discussions of individuality and emotional depth. This novel is a timeless exploration of the human condition, making it a worthy addition to any literary collection.

    “To live forever... and long for death.” 
    What begins as a desperate act of heartbreak turns into an eternal sentence in this haunting short tale by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, the famed author of Frankenstein. When young Winzy drinks a mysterious elixir meant to cure the torment of love, he unwittingly trades fleeting pain for everlasting regret. 
    Blessed—or cursed—with youth that never fades, Winzy watches the world age around him. Love, joy, grief, and time twist into a tragic knot of memories as centuries slip by and those he cherishes wither and pass. 
    The Mortal Immortal is a chilling meditation on desire, mortality, and the heavy burden of immortality. In a world where everything changes but him, Winzy’s greatest question remains unanswered: Is he truly immortal… or merely doomed to wait for death forever? 
    Narrated with intimate melancholy by Christopher Mireider, this gothic classic remains as resonant today as when it was first penned.

    Robert Belstrang, ex-magistrate bored with country life, comes to London to investigate the strange disappearance of Thomas Jessop, son of a poor Catholic neighbour. He locates the youth in Bedlam asylum, silent and starving himself. When he tries to free Jessop, he is warned off the case by a politic lawyer, Anstis. Soon after, Belstrang finds himself drugged, robbed and falsely imprisoned. 
     
     
    Once released Belstrang persists in his investigation, but he is thwarted at every turn: unseen forces are at work who seemingly want Thomas Jessop to die. When Belstrang confronts Anstis, even he turns up dead. 
     
     
    The trail grows murkier by the hour, drawing Belstrang into the fear-ridden Catholic underworld - until he uncovers a plan with its roots in the Gunpowder Plot of more than a decade ago. Young Thomas, an embittered papist, was being used in a desperate scheme to mark the anniversary of the Plot. The scheme failed – and now the conspirators seem eager to cover up the whole business. 
     
     
    But Belstrang’s a stubborn man. With the help of ex-soldier Daniel Oldrigg, he sticks doggedly to his purpose - and stumbles on the real causes of the Anniversary Plot, which stem from the very heart of a corrupt government. 
     
     
    Belstrang must uncover the truth, or die trying.
