Following her mother’s death and her father’s involvement with a gold-digger, aristocrat Jill decides to don the apparel of a lowly maid and travels to London seeking new adventure. Once there, she enters the employ of a mistress with whom she becomes increasingly close. Based on the author’s own romantic attachment to another women, “Jill” is a poignant tale of feminism and homosexual desire not to be missed by those with an interest in early feminist and gay literature. Elizabeth Amy Dillwyn (1845–1935) was a businesswoman, social benefactor, and novelist famous for being among Britain’s first female industrialists. Other notable works by this author include: “Jill and Jack” (1887), “The Rebecca Rioter” (1880), and “Chloe Arguelle” (1881). Read & Co. Classics is proudly republishing this classic novel now in a new edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
