Lily Lass is a novel written by Justin Huntly McCarthy and first published in 1890. The story follows the life of a young woman named Lily Lass, who is the daughter of a wealthy merchant. Lily is beautiful, intelligent, and independent, but she is also headstrong and impulsive. She falls in love with a young man named Arthur Fenton, who is a struggling artist. Despite the objections of her family, Lily decides to marry Arthur and live a bohemian lifestyle. The novel explores themes of love, class, and society. It portrays the struggles of a young woman who defies convention and chooses to follow her heart rather than conform to societal expectations. Lily's journey is filled with triumphs and setbacks, as she navigates the challenges of her unconventional lifestyle and the disapproval of her family and peers. Throughout the novel, McCarthy's writing is elegant and engaging, with vivid descriptions of the characters and settings. The story is set in late 19th-century England, and the author captures the spirit of the time with his detailed portrayal of the social and cultural milieu. Overall, Lily Lass is a compelling novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of a young woman who dares to challenge the norms of her society. It is a timeless story 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.
