Produktbeschreibung

Misunderstood by Florence Montgomery explores the psychological implications of parent-child relationships. Montgomery writes from the point of view of a young boy who lost his mother at a very early age. Excerpt: "Ever since the nursery dinner has the rain come pouring down all over the fields and meadows, the lawns and gardens, the roofs and gables of old Wareham Abbey, in the county of Sussex. Ever since the cloth was cleared away have two little curly heads been pressed close together at the nursery window, and two pair of eager eyes been watching the clouds and sky."

Autorenporträt

Florence Montgomery (1843-1923) was an English novelist, most celebrated for her novel 'Misunderstood' (1869), which became a classic in Victorian children's literature. Born to a life of privilege as the daughter of Sir Henry Montgomery, Bart., Florence's insightful understanding of family dynamics and social expectations shaped the compassionate and moral undertones that run through her narratives. Her prose is distinguished for its emotional depth and the ability to capture the innocence and sensitivity of childhood. 'Misunderstood' is a poignant tale of the tragic misunderstanding between a father and his son, ultimately stressing the importance of compassionate parenting and communication. The novel's enduring appeal is evidenced by its several editions and translations, affirming Montgomery's place in the literary canon as a writer whose work not only entertained but also prompted reflection on the treatment of children within the family unit. While her bibliography is not extensive, the lasting impact of 'Misunderstood' defines Florence Montgomery's literary legacy as a sympathetic and insightful chronicler of the Victorian era family life.
