Keren of Lowbole is a novel written by Una Lucy Silberrad and published in 1913. The story is set in the fictional village of Lowbole in the English countryside and follows the life of Keren, a young woman who has grown up in a strict and religious household. Keren’s father is a minister and her mother is a devout Christian, and Keren has been brought up to follow in their footsteps.However, Keren is restless and yearns for something more than the narrow life that has been laid out for her. When she meets a young man named David, who is studying to be a doctor, she is drawn to his intelligence and his worldly outlook. Despite her parents’ disapproval, Keren begins a secret relationship with David, and they become engaged.As Keren prepares to leave Lowbole and start a new life with David, she is confronted with a series of challenges and obstacles. Her father disowns her, and her mother falls ill. Keren must reconcile her desire for independence with her sense of duty to her family and her community.The novel explores themes of love, religion, duty, and social norms, and offers a vivid portrait of life in a rural English village at the turn of the 20th century. Silberrad’s writing is lyrical and evocative, and her characters are complex and nuanced. Keren of Lowbole is a timeless tale of a young woman’s struggle to find her place in the world, and a poignant reflection on the choices we make and the consequences they bring.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
