Leído por LibriVox Volunteers
Mary Augusta Ward (Mrs. Humphry Ward) was a very popular author at the end of the 19th century. The arrival of Marcella was discussed a lot in the London news papers. This popular novel tells about Marcella Boyce, a beauty of the 1880s, who thinks she truly believes in the values of socialism. A 21-year-old art student, she lives in a boarding house in Kensington until her father inherits Mellor Park, the family estate which is located in the Midlands. She unwillingly leaving her studies, all the things she loves and wants to do, and her friends, and starts her new life at Mellor Park, determined to help the poor people she sees around her. Then Aldous Raeburn, Tory candidate for Parliament and heir to Lord Maxwell's estate, falls in love with her. But Marcella is torn between her "love of power" and her "power to love." But she'll have to learn in the hard way that high morals are apt to clash with reality. (Summary by Stav Nisser) (25 hr 19 min)

Book wonderful but I prefer one reader
Quite enjoyable!

Nice , long involved storyline, several very good readers. I tend to like novels where the main character grows, matures & changes for the better. Slight negative aspects are that some readers are perhaps not , well, you know … Also some of the lengthy discussions of English politics at the time can be a bit dry, but neither take away very much from the overall experience.
