Description
The Winning of Lucia is a novel written by British author Amelia Edith Huddleston Barr. Barr was a prolific and popular author of the nineteenth century, having amassed a significant following of readers in Great Britain. Her autobiography All the Days of My Life was perhaps her most well known work. The Winning of Lucia is the story of an older man's pursuit and relationship with the teenage protagonist. It is in many ways a classic love story, featuring both triumph and tragedy. The plot revolves around the young Lucia, a popular girl who is pursued by numerous older men. With plot twists and intrigue, Barr keeps this love story moving along at a pleasant pace. Barr's stories are clearly written for the whimsical romantic. Relationships between men and women are at the forefront of most of her books, and The Winning of Lucia is no different. That is not to say that the plot is rehashed or unoriginal, but rather that she wrote for the enjoyment of her reader. Fans of romance novels will certainly enjoy this one. The Winning of Lucia is a pleasant novel written by a talented author. Both emotional and entertaining, this story is sure to please readers looking for a classic love story to add to their library.
