Der Spiegel
Roman
by Lynn Freed
This is the story of Agnes La Grange, a beautiful young woman who emigrates as a housekeeper to South Africa after the Great War. With a determination to make a future of her own and a love of men that does not leave her in desperate need of them, Agnes constructs a life beyond the conventions of colonial society.
Written in her own fresh and unguarded voice, The Mirror is a fictional memoir, telling the story of the essential female, what she must do to survive, and how little the cost has changed over time.
