SYNOPSIS
Wives and Daughters is far more than a nostalgic evocation of village life; it offers an ironic critique of mid-Victorian society. \\\'No nineteenth-century novel contains a more devastating rejection than this of the Victorian male assumption of moral authority\\\', writes Pam Morris in her introduction to this new edition, in which she explores the novel\\\'s main themes – the role of women, Darwinism and the concept of Englishness – and its literary and social context.
