About this audiobook
This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design. "Saved From Herself" by Adelaide Stirling is a captivating novel that explores themes of self-discovery, love, and ambition within the vibrant world of the theater. The story follows Ismay Trelane, a young girl returning from boarding school to a home overshadowed by her mother's social ambitions and neglect. Feeling unwelcome, Ismay escapes to the Palace Theater and is drawn into London's bustling nightlife, where her beauty stands out. Her accidental encounter with a charming stranger sets off a journey of emotional awakening and self-exploration, revealing her longing for connection and belonging. As the narrative unfolds, Ismay's relationship with her mother, Mrs. Trelane, becomes more strained. Mrs. Trelane's dashed hopes of marrying Lord Abbotsford and her subsequent confrontation with Ismay highlight the tension between societal expectations and personal desires. Ismay's growing self-awareness leads her to plot a future with Marcus Wray, believing she can manipulate her circumstances in a society that imposes rigid constraints on women. The plot thickens with the introduction of Miles Cylmer and Cristiane, whose complex emotional entanglements with Ismay and mysterious occurrences involving a spectral piano tune add layers of intrigue and suspense. Miles grapples with his feelings for Ismay, and his interactions with Cristiane add depth to themes of love, loyalty, and jealousy. The mysterious warnings from the old servant Thomas and the enigmatic presence of Mr. Wray suggest hidden secrets that bind the characters' fates. Stirling's narrative is rich with suspense and emotional depth, inviting readers into a world where ambition and romance collide, and the quest for identity and fulfillment leads to unexpected discoveries. Through Ismay's journey, the novel delves into the complexities of ambition, family dynamics, and the search for meaning within the constraints of society.
