The Outrage is a novel written by Annie Vivanti Chartres and published in 1918. The story revolves around the character of Lady Cecilia, a wealthy and beautiful woman who is married to a much older man. She becomes the object of desire for a young artist named Guy, who is infatuated with her and sees her as the embodiment of all that is beautiful and pure. However, when Lady Cecilia rejects his advances, Guy becomes enraged and sets out to destroy her reputation by spreading malicious rumors and lies about her. The novel explores themes of jealousy, obsession, and the destructive power of anger. It also delves into the societal norms of the time, particularly the expectations placed on women in terms of their behavior and reputation. The Outrage is a compelling and thought-provoking work of fiction that offers a glimpse into the social and cultural mores of early 20th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
