Maria Edgeworth : Leonora before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Leonora:

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. like Elizabeth GaskellBy L. MohrI'm in the process of reading through the many novels by Edgeworth and feel that she hasn't gotten enough attention. Among women writers of the period, her writing is probably not at the level of Jane Austen or Charlotte Bronte, but she's strong in social commentary, like Elizabeth Gaskell. Leonora and another novel, The Modern Griselda, are both about women who strive to dominate men so that they won't themselves be dominated, but strive too hard. These are first-rate works of fiction. Leonora is an epistolary novel and the genre is handled extremely well.

About the AuthorAlthough born in England in 1768, Maria Edgeworth was raised in Ireland from a young age after the death of her mother. After nearly losing her sight at age fourteen, Edgeworth was tutored at home by her father, helping to run their estate and taking charge of her younger siblings. Over the course of her life she collaborated and published books with her father, and produced many more of her own adult and children s works, including such classics as Castle Rackrent, Patronage, Belinda, Ormond and The Absentee. Edgeworth spent her entire life on the family estate, but kept up friendships and correspondences with her contemporaries Sir Walter Scott and Lord Byron, and her writing had a profound influence upon Jane Austen and William Makepeace Thackeray. Edgeworth was outspoken on the issues of poverty, women s rights, and racial inequalities. During the beginnings of famine in Ireland, Edgeworth worked in relief and support of the sick and destitute. She died in 1849 at the age of 81.
