Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extract from the novel Eglantine and follows the story of Dora, a resident of the small seaside town, Cove Rossington. Set in the mid-1800s, the book describes the arrival of a charismatic yet shy young curate, John Elphinston, who challenges the sleepy, proper, and somewhat complacent religious dogma of the local Anglican church. His sermons spark controversy and discussion amongst the well-to-do and the working-class alike, forcing many to reflect upon their faith and values. Although Dora initially struggles with Mr. Elphinston's plain-speaking, she is soon won over by his honesty and zeal. Their unlikely friendship deepens as they discover their shared sympathy and common goal of serving their community. This book provides fascinating insights into the social and religious landscape of Victorian England through the poignant story of a young woman and the transformative influence that a courageous and humble spiritual leader has on her life.
