Mary Shelley
Falkner ILLUSTRATED
(Independently published March 28, 2020)
Falkner (1837) is the penultimate book published by the author Mary Shelley. Like Shelley's earlier novel Lodore (1835), it charts a young woman's education under a tyrannical father figure.Falkner is the only one of Shelley's novels in which the heroine's agenda triumphs.[2] In critic Kate Ferguson Ellis's view, the novel’s resolution proposes that when female values triumph over violent and destructive masculinity, men will be freed to express the "compassion, sympathy, and generosity" of their better natures.
