Nell Haffenden: A Strictly Conventional Story is a novel written by Tighe Hopkins and first published in 1896. The story follows the life of Nell Haffenden, a young woman who is brought up in a strict and conventional household. Nell’s mother is obsessed with social status and propriety, and she raises her daughter to be the perfect society lady. Despite her upbringing, Nell is a free spirit who longs for adventure and excitement. She rebels against her mother’s strict rules and falls in love with a man who is not considered suitable by her family. Nell’s mother is outraged by her daughter’s behavior and tries to force her to marry a wealthy but dull man who can offer her financial security. As Nell struggles to reconcile her own desires with her mother’s expectations, she must navigate the complicated social hierarchies of Victorian England. The novel explores themes of love, duty, and social class, and provides a vivid portrait of life in late 19th century England. Overall, Nell Haffenden: A Strictly Conventional Story is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into the social mores of Victorian society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
