À propos de cet audio

Meet Miss Margaret Mackenzie, a thirty-five-year-old woman who has devoted her life to caring for others, only to find herself suddenly alone and unexpectedly wealthy. With her newfound fortune, she becomes the center of attention, no longer considered too old to marry. Yet, having spent her life in service to her brother, Miss Mackenzie is a stranger to wealth and popularity. She embodies the essence of being other-oriented, reminiscent of the folkloric character Griselda, known for her unwavering patience. In this engaging tale, Trollope cleverly critiques the fortune-seekers around her while exploring deeper themes of sexism, classism, and the pursuit of wealth. As she navigates the affections of three very different suitors, Miss Mackenzie embarks on a journey of self-discovery. As the truths about her brothers life and death come to light, she begins to understand her own desires and the true nature of those who surround her. Will she find the courage to embrace her newfound identity and say yes to a truly good man? Join us in this captivating exploration of love, self-awareness, and societal expectations.
