The Vicissitudes of Evangeline, published in 1905 by Elinor Glyn, is a novel that follows the journey of Evangeline, a young woman transitioning from heiress to adventuress after the death of her wealthy guardian. The narrative explores her reflections on independence, social status, and romantic aspirations as she navigates her uncertain future. Notable for its early 20th-century perspective on women's roles and societal expectations, the book captures Evangeline's youthful ambition and naivety in a changing social landscape.

“Nice feelings are for people who have money to live as they please. If I had ten thousand a year, or even five, I would snap my fingers at all men, and say, 'No, I make my life as I choose, and shall cultivate knowledge and books, and indulge in beautiful ideas of honor and exalted sentiments, and perhaps one day succumb to a noble passion.””

— Elinor Glyn
