Ombra
1872

Published in 1872, 'Ombra' by Mrs. Oliphant follows Katherine Courtenay, an only child and heiress raised in isolation at the Langton-Courtenay estate. Deprived of familial love, she grapples with her impulsive nature and a complicated relationship with her guardian, Mr. Courtenay. The novel explores themes of social class, mate selection, and the search for connection as Katherine navigates her lonely existence and the potential for friendship and love amidst her struggles. Oliphant's work provides insight into 19th-century English social customs and the challenges faced by women of her time.
