Flower And Thorn is a novel written by Beatrice Whitby and first published in 1901. The story revolves around the life and struggles of the main character, Muriel, who is a young woman trying to make her way in the world. Muriel is a talented artist who dreams of success and recognition, but she is also burdened by family obligations and societal expectations. She must navigate the challenges of love, friendship, and betrayal as she tries to find her place in a world that is often cruel and unforgiving. Along the way, she encounters a cast of memorable characters, including the charming but unreliable Jack, the kind and supportive Miss Heathcote, and the manipulative and jealous Lilian. The novel is a poignant and insightful exploration of the human condition, and it offers a compelling portrait of a young woman’s journey towards self-discovery and fulfillment. With its richly drawn characters, vivid descriptions, and engaging plot, Flower And Thorn is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
