by Florence Dixie

The story follows Gloriana de Lara, a young woman who, fueled by her passionate belief in equality, dedicates her life to fighting for women's liberation. Assuming the guise of a man named Hector D’Strange, she becomes a revolutionary figure, spearheading a movement that challenges the established social order. The novel explores themes of gender roles, political oppression, and the power of individual conviction in the face of societal constraints. It offers a captivating blend of historical fiction and futuristic speculation, capturing the spirit of the burgeoning feminist movement in Victorian England.
