Ann Veronica by H. G. Wells
There is a moment in Ann Veronica when the eponymous heroine, newly free from the stifling grip of her father’s authority, finds herself in the thrum of Edwardian London, her city and her world, both alien and familiar. H. G. Wells’s novel, published in 1909, is not merely the story of a young woman’s rebellion. It is a quiet, urgent meditation on the weight of self-determination in a world that resists it at every turn.
