The Luckiest Girl in the School

Autor Angela Brazil
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 feb 2019
¿The Luckiest Girl in the School¿ is a classic schooldgirls' story written by pioneer of the genre , Angela Brazil. Unlike her other stories, it follows the heroine through her entire school career. This entertaining and charming tale will appeal to young girls and is particularly recommended for those attending boarding schools or similar institutions. Angela Brazil (1868 ¿ 1947) was an English author most famous for being one of the first writers of "modern schoolgirls' stories". Her stories were presented from the characters' point of view and were written primarily as entertainment rather than moral instruction. During the first half of the 20th century, Brazil published nearly 50 such books, with the vast majority being set in English boarding schools. Brazil's work had a significant influence on changing the nature of fiction for girls. Her charters were chiefly young females, active, independent, and aware. Brazil's books were often considered to be immoral and deviant, leading to their being burned or banned by many Headteachers in girls schools across Britain. Contents include: ¿An Entrance Examination¿, ¿Seaton High School¿, ¿The Symposium Aunt Harriet¿, ¿A Crisis¿, ¿An Autumn Foray¿, ¿Concerns a Camerä, ¿The School Service Badge¿, ¿A Scare¿, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.

Notă biografică

"Oh; don't all begin to expatiate about your feelings!" broke in Chatty Burns. "We know Pauline's symptoms only too well: the first day she shows aggressively red eyes and a damp pocket-handkerchief; the second day she writes lengthy letters home; begging to be allowed to return immediately and have lessons with a private governess; the third day she wanders about; trying to get sympathy from anyone who is weak-minded enough to listen to her; till in desperation somebody drags her into the playground; and makes her have a round at hockey. That cheers her up; and she begins to think life isn't quite such a desert. By the fourth morning she has recovered her spirits; and come to the conclusion that Chessington College is a very decent kind of place; and she begins to be alarmed lest her mother; on the strength of the pathetic letter; should have decided to let her leave at once; and should have already engaged a private governess."
