"The World For Sale" is a novel by Gilbert Parker that was first published in 1916. The story takes place in Canada and centers around the clash of two cultures: the indigenous Romani people and the settlers who have arrived to claim the land as their own. The novel follows the story of Fleda Druse, a Romani woman who is caught between two worlds. She has been raised in the Romani culture but longs for the stability and security of the settled life. When she is given in marriage to Jethro Fawe, a fellow Romani, she tries to make the best of it, but her heart belongs to the Canadian settler, Ingolby. As tensions between the two cultures escalate, Fleda must navigate a complex web of loyalties and obligations. She finds herself torn between her love for Ingolby and her duty to her people. Along the way, she must confront betrayal, violence, and the harsh realities of life in a world where everything, including love and loyalty, is for sale. Through Fleda's story, the novel explores themes of cultural conflict, identity, and the struggle for survival in a rapidly changing world. It is a poignant and thought-provoking tale of love and loss, set against the backdrop of a changing landscape.

Autorenporträt
Gilbert Parker was the pen name of Canadian author George Parker, 1st Baronet PC (23 November 1862 - 6 September 1932). He was born in Camden East, Addington, Ontario, and was the son of Captain Joseph Parker, R.A. In 1882, he became a teacher at the Ontario Institute for the Deaf and Dumb in Belleville, Ontario. Before that, he taught at the Marsh Hill and Bayside schools in Hastings County. His next stop was to teach at Trinity College. His trip to Australia in 1886 led him to work as a deputy editor for the Sydney Morning Herald for a while. He also did a lot of traveling in the Pacific, Europe, Asia, Egypt, the South Sea Islands, and later northern Canada. By the early 1990s, he was becoming better known in London as a romance fiction writer. The best of his books are the ones that were the first to focus on the past and daily lives of French Canadians. His lasting literary fame is built on the vivid and dramatic quality of his Canadian stories.
