Mrs. Craddock is a novel written by William Somerset Maugham and published in 1903. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the life of a young woman named Bertha Ley. Bertha is from a wealthy family and has always had everything she wanted, but she is unhappy with her life and feels unfulfilled. She marries a farmer named Edward Craddock, who is much older than her and not as wealthy as her family. Bertha hopes that marriage will bring her the happiness she seeks, but she soon realizes that she has made a mistake. Edward is a simple man who is content with his life on the farm, while Bertha longs for the excitement and sophistication of the city. As the years go by, Bertha becomes increasingly unhappy and begins to resent Edward. She starts an affair with a younger man, but this only makes her feel more trapped and miserable. In the end, Bertha realizes that she cannot escape her unhappiness and decides to leave Edward and start a new life. The novel explores themes of love, marriage, and the search for happiness, and is considered a classic of early 20th-century literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
