Sunrise: A Story Of These Times is a novel written by William Black and published in 1881. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the lives of two young women, Marion and Alice, who come from very different backgrounds. Marion is a wealthy heiress who is engaged to a man she does not love, while Alice is a poor governess who dreams of a better life. As the story progresses, the two women’s lives become intertwined and they find themselves facing similar challenges. They both struggle with the societal expectations of their gender and class, as well as the limitations placed on them by their families and society. The novel explores themes of love, class, and gender roles, as well as the changing social and economic landscape of the time. It also touches on issues such as women’s suffrage and the changing role of women in society. Overall, Sunrise: A Story Of These Times is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a glimpse into the lives of women in the late 19th century. It is a timeless tale that still resonates with 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.
