Beschreibung zu „Kitty Alone“

Kitty Alone is a romance and mystery novel written by Sabine Baring-Gould. It's a suspenseful story set on the South Devon Coast. The eponymous Kitty is a clever and sensitive young girl, Kate Quarm. She is feeling rather lonely and misunderstood most of the time. Kitty lives with her relatives in a farmhouse, but both her father and her uncle don't seem to have enough time to understand her. Her solitude comes to an end when the son of the most prosperous farmer in the area falls deeply in love with her. But Kitty seems to have her mind focused on different things… This remarkable story is full of insights into the link between the truth and the soul. It's a classic Victorian read with plenty of details of rural social life and a great amount of mystery.

Über Sabine Baring-Gould

Sabine Baring-Gould (1834-1924), a scholar, Reverend, and author, produced more than 1,240 publications during his lifetime! He is perhaps best known as a hymn writer (he wrote the hymns “Onward, Christian Soldiers” and “Now the Day is Over,” among many others), but he definitely considered his crowning achievement to be his collections of folk songs from the townspeople of Cornwall and Devon. His studies of folklore and folk music actually lead to the creation of The Book of Were-Wolves (1865), the book where “The Werewolf of the North” was originally published. The Book of Were-Wolves remains an important study of lycanthropy even today.
