Produktbeschreibung
Sara Jeannette Duncan's novel, 'The Path of a Star,' is a beautifully written piece of Victorian literature that explores themes of societal expectations, personal growth, and the role of women in society. Set in the late 19th century, the book follows the protagonist, Rachel Minchin, as she navigates the challenges of finding her own path amidst the constraints of her rigid social class. Duncan's elegant prose and attention to detail transport the reader back in time, providing a vivid depiction of the era. The novel's exploration of gender roles and class distinctions makes it a significant work of feminist literature. Sara Jeannette Duncan, a Canadian author and journalist, drew inspiration from her own experiences as a woman in a male-dominated profession to write 'The Path of a Star.' Her keen observations of society and nuanced character development in the book reflect her deep understanding of human nature. Duncan's background in journalism adds a sense of realism to the narrative, giving the reader a glimpse into the complexities of Victorian society. I highly recommend 'The Path of a Star' to readers interested in historical fiction, feminist literature, and insightful character studies. Duncan's masterful storytelling and thought-provoking themes make this novel a timeless classic that continues to resonate with contemporary audiences.

Autorenporträt
Sara Jeannette Duncan (1861 - 1922) was a Canadian author and journalist. She also published as Mrs. Everard Cotes among other names. She was a noted feminist author. Her most famous novel was The Imperialist. First trained as a teacher in a normal school, she published poetry early in her life and after a brief period of teaching got a job as a traveling writer for Canadian newspapers and wrote a column for The Globe, a Toronto paper. Afterward she wrote for the Washington Post where she also gained editorial experience, being quickly put in charge of the current literature section. She continued to work as a writer and editor for Canadian publications until a journey to India, where she married an Anglo-Indian civil servant. From then on she divided her time between England and India, writing for publications in various countries and then began to write fiction rather than journalism. She wrote 22 works of fiction, many with international themes and settings, novels which met with mixed acclaim and today are rarely read. In 2016, she was named a National Historic Person on the advice of the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada.
