This novel spurred a controversy upon its initial publication in 1913, with some libraries and bookstores refusing to sell it on moral grounds. Although author Hall Caine addressed aspects of women's rights in some of his previous works, he tackles the issue head-on in this nuanced, emotionally resonant tale of an Irish woman who must decide between adhering to society's strictures or following her heart.
