This book contains Edith Ellis's 1907 novel, "Kit's Woman, A Cornish Idyll". The novel is notable for its use of Cornish dialect, and tells the tale of Janet and Kit - a married couple who face considerable difficulties after Kit becomes paralysed in a mining accident. After Janet has an affair with an attractive older man, together, they struggle to find their own answers in the midst of village gossip. Edith Mary Oldham Ellis (1861-1916) was an English author and activist, and was married to the pioneering sexologist Havelock Ellis. With this delightful and thought-provoking novel, Ellis imbues her husband's famous ideas into a masterful work of romantic fiction that unfolds in an idyllic historical setting. Many antiquarian texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
