Sinopsis

Mrs. Craddock is a novel written by William Somerset Maugham and published in 1903. The story is set in the late 19th century and revolves around the life of a young woman named Bertha Ley. Bertha is a beautiful and wealthy young woman who lives in Kent, England. She is married to a farmer named Edward Craddock, who is much older than her and lacks the sophistication and charm that Bertha desires. As the story progresses, Bertha realizes that she is not happy in her marriage and begins to have an affair with a younger man named Gerald. However, her affair is short-lived, and she soon realizes that she cannot escape her unhappy marriage. Bertha?s relationship with Edward deteriorates further, and she becomes increasingly unhappy and frustrated. The novel explores themes of love, desire, and the constraints of societal expectations. It is a poignant and insightful portrayal of the struggles of a young woman in a society that values tradition and conformity above individual happiness. Maugham?s writing is elegant and evocative, and he creates a vivid and compelling portrait of Bertha?s life and struggles. Overall, Mrs. Craddock is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the challenges faced by women in the late 19th century. It is a classic work of literature that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
