Don’t Tell: Or Mistaken Kindness is a novel written by Mary E. Bennett in 1858. The story revolves around a young woman named Edith who is forced to keep a dark secret from her family and friends. Edith’s father, a wealthy businessman, is involved in illegal activities, and when he is falsely accused of a crime, Edith takes the blame to protect him. As a result, she is forced to leave her home and live in poverty, working as a governess to support herself. The novel explores themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and the consequences of keeping secrets. It also highlights the societal pressures placed on women during the Victorian era, where a woman’s reputation was everything. Through Edith’s struggles, the author sheds light on the importance of honesty and the dangers of misplaced kindness. Don’t Tell: Or Mistaken Kindness is a compelling read that offers a glimpse into the social norms and values of the 19th century. It is a story of love, betrayal, and redemption that will keep readers engaged until the very end.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
