    Sarah Grand, T. Breeds

    eBook (Heritage Illustrated Publishing, May 9, 2014)
    * Beautifully illustrated with atmospheric paintings by renowned artists, The Heavenly Twins is an absolute gem of a novel. It deals with subjects related to women that were highly sensitive at the time of its first publication in the late nineteenth century. Themes include the dangers of the double standard that men's promiscuity is overlooked whilst women are punished for it; the need for intelligent, middle-class women to choose their partner more carefully; women's inequality; and the dangers of sexually transmitted diseases such as syphilis. * Just as accessible and enjoyable for today's modern readers as it would have been when first published over a century ago, the novel is one of the great works of English literature and continues to be widely read throughout the world.* This meticulous digital edition from Heritage Illustrated Publishing is a faithful reproduction of the original text and is enhanced with images of classic works of art carefully selected by our team of professional editors.

  • The Heavenly Twins, Volume II

    Madame Sarah Grand

    Paperback (Dodo Press, Dec. 19, 2008)
    Madame Sarah Grand (1854-1943), born Frances Bellenden Clarke was a feminist writer active from 1873 to 1922 in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Her work dealt with the New Woman in fiction and in fact, she wrote treatises on the subject of the failure of marriage, and her novels may be considered strongly anti-marriage polemics. For some women, the New Woman movement provided support for women who wanted to work and learn for themselves, and who started to question the idea of marriage and the inequality of women. For other women, especially Sarah Grand, the New Woman movement allowed women to speak out not only about the inequality of women, but about middle- class women's responsibilities to the nation. In The Heavenly Twins (1893) Grand demonstrates the dangers of the moral double standard which overlooked men's promiscuity while punishing women for the same acts. More importantly, however, Grand argues in The Heavenly Twins that in order for the British nation to grow stronger, middle-class women had the responsibility of choosing mates with whom they might produce strong, well-educated children.
