This two-part adult fairytale by the author of The Secret Garden combines a charming Cinderella tale with an ironic look at class structure and the Edwardian marriage market in turn-of-the-century London.

Emily Fox-Seton is a simple but good-hearted woman struggling to make ends meet while maintaining the dignity of one distantly related to the aristocracy. The Marquis of Walderhurst is an awkward but eligible bachelor being comically pursued by a pageant of unmarried ladies. When the Marquis surprises everybody by giving his attentions to Emily, he makes himself a fairy tale prince in her eyes. But marrying her prince is not the end of Emily’s troubles, as the forces of envy are more cunning and more dangerous than she can yet understand. Will Emily’s innocence be her downfall after all?

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Frances Hodgson Burnett

Frances Hodgson Burnett nasceu a 24 de novembro de 1849, em Manchester, Inglaterra. A morte prematura do seu pai levou a que Frances, juntamente com a sua mãe e quatro irmãs, se mudassem para Tennessee, nos Estados Unidos da América, em busca de melhores condições de vida. Frances tinha apenas dezoito anos quando enviou uma história sua para uma popular revista literária, dando assim início a uma auspiciosa carreira de escritora. Em 1873, casou com um médico norte-americano, mudando-se com ele, poucos anos depois, para Washington. De entre as suas obras destacam-se A Princesinha e O Pequeno Lorde, mas foi com O Jardim Secreto que se tornou mundialmente conhecida. Frances Hodgson Burnett passou grande parte da sua vida entre a Inglaterra e os Estados Unidos, onde veio a falecer a 29 de outubro de 1924.
