The Unbound Lady

di Tommy Rutgersson (Autore)

Tommy Rutgersson, 2025

England, 1794. Elisabeth Seymour has everything a young woman of her station could want—wealth, family, and an advantageous engagement to the eligible Lord Pemberton. Everything, that is, except freedom.** When Elisabeth refuses to marry a man she doesn't love, she loses everything: her family, her home, and her place in society. With only a small sum of money and no practical skills, she flees to London, where she must learn to survive in a world that offers women few options and fewer rights. At Bennett House, a boarding establishment for independent women, Elisabeth discovers a community of remarkable individuals who challenge everything she's been taught about a woman's proper place. Through work as a writer's assistant, involvement in reform circles, and her own painful education in economic realities, she begins to understand the systemic constraints that bind all women—regardless of class or circumstance. As Elisabeth transforms from a sheltered gentlewoman into a public advocate for women's rights, she faces difficult choices about how to use her privilege, her voice, and her hard-won independence. When her past threatens to destroy everything she's built, she must decide whether to retreat into safety or step fully into the dangerous role of reformer. Based on the real struggles of early feminists and set during the rise of women's rights movements in Georgian England, *The Unmaking of Lady Elisabeth Seymour* is a story of courage, community, and the revolutionary act of claiming one's own life. It explores what it means to break free from society's expectations, the price of speaking truth to power, and the transformative power of women supporting women. **A compelling historical novel about one woman's journey from privilege to purpose, and the beginning of a movement that would change the world..
