Ann of Ava is a historical novel set in the 14th century, written by Ethel Daniels Hubbard and first published in 1913. The story follows the life of Ann, a young woman who is forced to flee her home in England after her father is accused of treason. She finds refuge in the court of Ava, a small kingdom in what is now Myanmar, where she becomes a trusted advisor to the queen. As Ann adapts to her new life in Ava, she learns about the customs and traditions of the people there, and becomes involved in the political intrigues of the court. She also falls in love with a young nobleman named Thihathu, but their relationship is threatened by the jealousy of another courtier. The novel is based on historical events and characters, and offers a vivid portrayal of life in medieval Ava. It explores themes of identity, loyalty, and the clash of cultures, as Ann struggles to reconcile her English upbringing with the customs of her new home. Overall, Ann of Ava is a compelling historical novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into a little-known period of Southeast Asian history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
