The Hundredth Chance is a novel by Ethel M. Dell, first published in 1917. The story follows the life of a young woman named Joan Carthew, who is forced to leave her comfortable life in India after her father's death and move to England to live with her aunt. In England, Joan struggles to adjust to her new life and the rigid social conventions of English society. However, she soon finds herself falling in love with a man named Sir Edward Leithen, who is also struggling to find his place in the world. As their relationship develops, Joan and Sir Edward must navigate the complexities of their own feelings and the expectations of those around them. Along the way, they encounter a cast of colorful characters, including a mysterious woman who may hold the key to their future happiness. The Hundredth Chance is a beautifully written novel that explores themes of love, loss, and the search for meaning in life.1917. Dell, British writer, began writing at a young age. Most of her stories are ones of passion and love set in India and other British colonial possessions. The Hundredth Chance begins: My dear Maud, I hope I am not lacking in proper pride. But it is an accepted-though painful-fact that beggars cannot be choosers. Lady Brian spoke with plaintive emphasis the while she drew an elaborate initial in the sand at her feet with the point of her parasol. I cannot live in want, she said, after a thoughtful moment or two. Besides, there is poor little Bunny to be considered. Another thoughtful pause; then: What did you say dear?
