Miss Meredith

by Amy Levy

Miss Meredith is not the most talented of her sisters. In fact, she considers herself the typical of them. She has the adventure of a life time when she is offered the post of governess to an ancient noble Italian family. Things become even more complicated when the favorite son of the family falls in love with her. This book reflects the ancient traditions, and shows how things can change and how people from different walks of life react to changes.
