Girl Neighbors

Girl Neighbors: Or The Old Fashion And The New is a novel written by Sarah Tytler and published in 1888. The story revolves around two contrasting female characters, one representing the old-fashioned ways of life and the other representing the modern and progressive ways. The main character, Miss Jean Muir, is a young woman who has been brought up in the old-fashioned way, with strict moral values and a strong sense of duty. She lives with her sister, who is a model of the traditional womanhood of the time. Their lives are disrupted when a new neighbor, Miss Maud Ralston, moves in next door. Miss Ralston is a modern woman, who is independent, confident, and ambitious. The two women form a friendship, but their differing views on life and love cause conflict between them. The novel explores themes of gender roles, societal expectations, and the changing attitudes towards women in the late 19th century. It is a fascinating insight into the lives of women during this period and the challenges they faced in trying to break free from the constraints of traditional gender roles.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
