The Serio-Comic Governess - Israel Zangwill - Bog

The Serio-Comic Governess is a novel written by Israel Zangwill. The story revolves around a young woman named Rachel who becomes a governess for a wealthy family in Victorian England. Rachel is a strong-willed and independent woman who is not afraid to speak her mind, which often leads to humorous situations. She quickly becomes a favorite of the children and their parents, but her unorthodox methods and unconventional ideas cause tension with the more traditional members of the household staff. As Rachel navigates the challenges of being a governess in a society that expects women to be submissive and obedient, she also grapples with her own romantic feelings towards one of the family's friends. The novel is a satirical commentary on Victorian society and the limitations placed on women during that time period.THIS 126 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Grey Wig Or Stories and Novelettes, by Israel Zangwill.
