Sinopse

A Lost Lady of Old Years by John Buchan is a historical novel blending romance, adventure, and moral introspection. Set in 17th-century Scotland, it follows Francis Birkenshaw, a young fugitive fleeing unjust accusations, who encounters the enigmatic Lady Marjorie Dalkeith. Once a celebrated beauty now fallen into obscurity, she becomes both ally and mentor as Francis navigates intrigue and danger during the Covenanters’ rebellion. Buchan explores themes of loyalty, redemption, and the passage of time, contrasting youthful idealism with the wisdom of age. The “lost lady” symbolizes a fading era, her story interwoven with Francis’s quest for justice and self-discovery. Rich in period detail and suspense, the novel captures the tension of a divided Scotland while reflecting on human resilience and the enduring power of dignity. A timeless tale of courage and transformation.
