Katherine the Arrogant is a novel by B. M. Croker that tells the story of a young woman named Katherine who is raised in a wealthy and privileged family. She is beautiful, intelligent, and talented, but her arrogance and sense of entitlement alienate those around her.As she grows older, Katherine becomes increasingly manipulative and selfish, using her charm and wit to get what she wants. She marries a wealthy man, but the marriage is unhappy and eventually ends in divorce.Despite her many flaws, Katherine is a complex and fascinating character, and the novel explores the psychological motivations behind her behavior. It also offers a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy and privileged in early 20th century England.Overall, Katherine the Arrogant is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that delves into themes of power, privilege, and the human psyche.1914. With a frontispiece. The book begins: It was four o'clock on a cheerless February afternoon; a hopeless drizzle descended upon London, and a gaunt old woman, wrapped in a knitted shawl, stood at the window of a boardinghouse, peering into the street. Although she nodded her head, and blinked her eyes approvingly, there was not much to see-in fact, the outlook was as dull and devoid of interest as the lady's own existence. A row of ugly houses, a leaden sky, a scanty procession of umbrellas, cabs, and carts, and one miserable lost dog, frightened and famishing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
