''Live and Let Live'' is a novel written by Catharine Maria Sedgwick and published in 1837. It tells the story of a young woman named Ellen who grows up in a small New England town and faces the challenges of living in a society that values conformity and tradition over individuality and personal freedom.Ellen is raised by her strict and traditional aunt, who expects her to conform to the expectations of society and marry a wealthy man. However, Ellen longs for a more fulfilling life and resists the pressures to conform. She falls in love with a young man named Charles, who shares her desire for personal freedom and self-expression.As Ellen and Charles navigate their relationship and the expectations of society, they encounter various obstacles and challenges. They are forced to confront the prejudices and narrow-mindedness of those around them, including Ellen’s aunt and Charles’ family. They also face financial difficulties and other setbacks that threaten their happiness and well-being.Throughout the novel, Sedgwick explores themes of individuality, freedom, and the importance of living according to one’s own values and beliefs. She also critiques the rigid social norms and expectations of her time, particularly those that limit the opportunities and freedoms of women.Overall, ''Live and Let Live'' is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a nuanced portrayal of life in early 19th century America. It is a testament to Sedgwick’s skill as a writer and her commitment to exploring important social and political issues through her work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
