Katherine Cecil Thurston Boeken
Katherine Cecil Thurston was een Ierse romanschrijfster wiens werken de complexiteit van de menselijke psyche en de sociale normen van haar tijd onderzochten. Haar schrijven werd gekenmerkt door een diepgaand inzicht in de motivaties van haar personages en een scherpe observatie van de wereld om haar heen. Door haar verhalen verkende ze thema's als identiteit, ambitie en de aanhoudende zoektocht naar betekenis. Thurston liet een onuitwisbare indruk achter in de literatuur met haar scherpzinnige visie en vloeiende proza.






Set in early 20th-century Ireland, this novel delves into the lives of a wealthy group of friends who form a secret society called "The Circle." Central to the story is Judith, who becomes enthralled by the group's artistic pursuits and her growing affection for the charismatic Richard. As they navigate complex relationships and confront social and political issues, Judith struggles with her loyalties between love and family. The narrative offers a rich commentary on the tensions of tradition versus modernity and the quest for personal meaning amidst societal expectations.
