Description

Caroline's life was forever changed when her mother left her father when she was just four years old. Fifteen years later, tragedy struck again, leaving Caroline to care for two younger siblings and navigate the complexities of family relationships.

The three children grew up under Caroline's guidance, with one unwavering truth: "Caroline knows best." As they matured, however, tensions arose as Caroline struggled to relinquish her hold on them. Her values of loyalty were deeply ingrained, but when she invited a guest into her home, the dynamics shifted in unexpected ways.

This nuanced study of family relationships explores the consequences of duty and respectability, highlighting the complexities of women's lives and the unintended effects of good intentions. First published in 1936, Caroline offers a thought-provoking portrayal of one woman's struggles and triumphs.
