Om denne e-bog
Published in 1890, "Beatrice" stands out as H. Rider Haggard's 10th novel—a stark departure from the 58 adventures he would eventually write. Forgoing the lost races, battles, and supernatural elements found in his other works, this novel reveals Haggard’s softer side. It is a masterfully written romance and perhaps his most emotionally charged story.
The plot centers on the doomed love between Beatrice Granger, a young Welsh schoolteacher, and Geoffrey Bingham, a barrister trapped in a miserable London marriage. Their connection ignites when Beatrice heroically rescues Geoffrey from a canoeing accident during a violent storm. However, their path to happiness is blocked by a trio of obstacles: Geoffrey’s gold-digging wife, Honoria; a wealthy but obsessive suitor named Owen Davies; and Beatrice’s own sister, Elizabeth, who is determined to steal Davies for herself.
