purringalone-
Born in 1885 in a smoky mill town of Lancashire, Eleanor Whitford grew up in a world ruled by the long shadow of Queen Victoria. And yet, she watches the world shift in small, astonishing ways: from horse-drawn carriages to motorcars, from waltzes to music that dares break every rule. . .
While her mother, Marianne, clings to the ordered propriety of the old century, Eleanor begins to wonder: why must girls remain still and proper when the world itself is racing forward?
From her first memory of a gloved hand guiding her through Victorian streets to the restless years just before the guns of 1914, Eleanor's story is one of small rebellions, family bonds, and the slow, unstoppable pull of tomorrow.
