Über das Buch

In her remarkably precocious work, «The Young Visiters or, Mr. Salteena's Plan,» Daisy Ashford presents a humorous and charming tale of Victorian social mores and youthful aspirations. Written when she was just nine years old, the manuscript showcases Ashford's unique narrative voice, characterized by a whimsical style that reflects the innocence and na√Øvet√© of childhood. Set in an era of rigid class structures, the novel revolves around Mr. Salteena's misguided endeavours to attract high-society attention, serving as both a comedy of manners and a critique of the prevailing bourgeois values of the time. Daisy Ashford, born in 1881 in a middle-class London family, enjoyed exposure to literature and storytelling from an early age, encouraged by her family'Äôs literary tastes. Her own experiences and childhood observations of the adult world informed her writing, intertwining innocence with acerbic wit. After rediscovering her forgotten manuscript in her twenties, she became an emblem of literary expression that echoes the struggles of youth amidst adult expectations. This work is highly recommended for readers who appreciate the interplay between youthful imagination and adult pretense. Ashford'Äôs delightful prose invites reflection on societal norms while invoking nostalgia for the simplicity of childhood dreams. A true gem in English literature, it is essential reading for those intrigued by the artistry of young writers.
