Description
The Orange Lily is set in the area surrounding the small village of Carrowdore in County Down, Northern Ireland. In this novel, May Crommelin explores the trials and tribulations of love and social class in 19th-century Ulster. Against the backdrop of a complex social hierarchy, the story follows the heroine, Lily Keag, whose life is shaped by her family's position within the local Orange Lodge. This richly detailed novel not only tells a compelling tale of star-crossed lovers but also provides a wealth of insight into the history and culture of the region. This new edition includes Crommelin's short stories, The Witch of Windy Hill and An Old Maid's Marriage, offering a unique glimpse into the author's writing style and the world she created.
