The Egoist : A Comedy in Narrative Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The tragicomic book The Egoist was written by George Meredith.

The novel showcases the narrative of a self-absorbed Sir Willoughby Patterne's marriage attempts.

After being dumped by his first intended bride-to-be, he vacillates between the sympathetic Laetitia Dale and the determined Clara Middleton.

The story focuses more on Clara's attempts to break free from her engagement to Sir Willoughby, who views women as mirrors of himself and finds it difficult to comprehend why she would not want to wed him.

The Egoist dramatizes the challenges faced by women in Victorian society as a result of the exchange of women's bodies and brains between dads and spouses in order to strengthen masculine relationships.

The plot of The Egoist has many twists and turns that engage the reader.

With an eye-catching cover and professionally typeset manuscript, the book is both modern and readable.
