Three Novellas: "Distress'd Orphan", "Double Marriage", "City Jilt" (Early English Women Writers 1660-1800) Book

As part of the Early Women Writers 1650-1800 Series, this edition presents of three of Eliza Haywood's novellas. The three novellas presented here - THE DITRESS'D ORPHAN, THE CITY JILT, and THE DOUBLE MARRAIGE - were published separately in 1726, but were originally intended for a single volume.Haywood was a dangerous entity in the eighteenth century: a writing woman, writing for women. Like many female authors before her, Haywood was labeled and condemned by men as unfeminine, licentious, immodest and usurping. She dared to wield that masculine instrument, the pen, and speak her mind in public like a man. Haywood is revealed as a writer of great spirit and daring with her dramatic descriptions of the battle of the sexes.Read More
