The Stranger from Wildfell Hall

One of the best works of the golden age of English literature. A repeatedly adapted masterpiece of psychological realism. A novel that was first published in 1848 - and caused a sensation in England, as it posed, for the first time in European literature, a very uncomfortable question with complete frankness and directness: should a woman who has become the wife of a domestic tyrant bear her cross submissively for the sake of preserving the family, in the name of the children? Or is it not only her right but also her duty as a mother to break the bonds of such a marriage?
