Omschrijving

Joanna Godden is a novel written by Sheila Kaye-Smith and published in 1922. The story is set in the early 20th century in rural Kent, England, and follows the life of Joanna Godden, a strong-willed and independent woman who inherits her father's farm after his death. Joanna is determined to make a success of the farm and sets out to modernize it, much to the disapproval of her conservative neighbors. She also defies convention by pursuing a romantic relationship with a wealthy landowner, Arthur Alce, despite their class differences and the disapproval of her family and community. As Joanna navigates the challenges of running a farm and dealing with societal expectations, she must also confront her own inner conflicts and desires. The novel explores themes of gender roles, class divisions, and the tension between tradition and progress. Kaye-Smith's vivid descriptions of the Kentish countryside and the daily routines of farm life provide a rich backdrop for Joanna's story, and the novel's strong female protagonist was ahead of its time in its portrayal of a woman's struggle for independence and fulfillment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
