Heart of Philura

by Florence Morse Kingsley

In this heartwarming tale, Miss Philura, now a minister's wife, continues to navigate the changing landscape of early 20th-century life. Her independent spirit, fueled by a longing for a deeper connection, blossoms as she embraces the challenges and joys of her new role. The arrival of a mysterious family in the village disrupts the quiet life of Innesfield, leading to unexpected consequences and forcing Philura to confront her own past and present. Filled with compassion and insightful observations on life, 'Heart of Philura' explores themes of community, family, love, and the evolving role of women in a world on the cusp of transformation.
