| The Rebel of the Family (1880) is the first New Woman novel by Eliza Lynn Linton. Perdita Winstanley, the novelâ s protagonist, struggles to balance the competing demands of her snobbish, conservative mother and sisters, her radical friends in the womenâ s rights movement, and an admirable but low-born chemist and his family. The Rebel of the Family also includes what is perhaps the first literary portrait of the late-Victorian lesbian community in London, featuring Bell Blount and her â little wifeâ Connie. This Broadview edition includes a critical introduction and appendices that help to set the work in its historical and literary contexts. |
