By weaving a tale of suspense and intrigue, "Lady Audley's Secret" provides a captivating exploration of the human psyche and the moral dilemmas faced by its characters. This book offers a journey into the depths of Victorian society, challenging readers to reflect on the timeless themes of truth, deception, and the pursuit of happiness.
  • Biographie : Born in Soho, London, Mary Elizabeth Braddon was privately educated. Her mother Fanny separated from her father Henry because of his infidelities in 1840, when Mary was five. When Mary was ten years old, her brother Edward Braddon left for India and later Australia, where he became Premier of Tasmania. Mary worked as an actress for three years, when she was befriended by Clara and Adelaide Biddle. They were only playing minor roles, but Braddon was able to support herself and her mother. Adelaide noted that Braddon's interest in acting waned as she took up writing novels.
