Far From Today is a novel written by Gertrude Hall Brownell and published in 1892. The story follows the life of a young woman named Hester who is forced to leave her home in New York City and move to a small town in the Midwest after the death of her father. Hester struggles to adjust to her new surroundings and the conservative attitudes of the people in the town. However, she eventually finds solace in the company of a young man named Hugh, who shares her love of literature and art. As their relationship deepens, Hester is forced to confront the societal expectations placed upon her as a woman and the limitations they impose on her dreams and aspirations. The novel explores themes of love, loss, and the struggle for self-discovery in a society that values conformity above all else. Written in a lyrical and introspective style, Far From Today is a poignant and thought-provoking work of fiction that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
