About this book

A Simple Story (Oxford World's Classics) by Inchbald, Elizabeth. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780192835987.

When Miss Milner announces her passion for her guardian, a Catholic priest, she breaks through the double barrier of his religious vocation and 18th-century British societys standards of proper womanly behavior. Like other women writers of her time, Elizabeth Inchbald concentrates on the question of a womans "proper education," and her sureness of touch and subtlety of characterization prefigure Jane Austens work.
