It is the sombre account of the breakdown of a marriage in the face of alcoholism and infidelity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWriting with a power not usually associated with the youngest of the Brontë sisters, Anne portrays the decline of an aristocratic husband whose drunken excesses and domestic violence force his loving wife into a reluctant rebellion. The novel enjoyed a modest success that led its publisher, the unscrupulous T. C. Newby, to issue a 'Second Edition' less than two months later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe present volume offers a text based on the collation of the first edition with the second (really a re-issue of the first, with a few corrections). The introduction details the work's composition and early printing history, including its first publication in America; and the text is fully annotated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAppendices record the substantive variants in the first English and American editions, and discuss the author's belief in the doctrine of universal salvation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47648150749420,"sku":"9780198125969","price":955.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780198125969-the-tenant-of-wildfell-hall.jpg?v=1779250101","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/the-tenant-of-wildfell-hall-by-anne-bronte-9780198125969","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
