This book is a romantic novel from the late nineteenth century. It focuses on themes of love, social status, and personal relationships. The language reflects the style of popular fiction from that era, featuring descriptive prose and formal sentence structures. Readers may find the vocabulary somewhat dated, as it includes expressions common to that period. The sentences are often lengthy and complex, which provides a good opportunity to practice reading longer, more involved narrative passages in a traditional literary style.

Questions about this book
What level of English do I need for this book?
The estimate is B1, based on how common the words are and how long the sentences run. It is an approximation, not a test result. With a translation under every sentence you can start one level earlier than you would with a paper copy.
Is this book really free?
Yes. The text is in the public domain and comes from Project Gutenberg, so it costs nothing. In Lingo7 you open the book and read the first page for free; a subscription unlocks the whole library, the audio and the word practice.
How does reading with a translation work?
Lingo7 shows the original sentence and, right under it, the same sentence in your language. Tap a word to see what it means, hear it, and save it for practice. The translation is made while you read, so it works for any book and for 49 languages.
How long does it take to read?
About 12 h 42 min at a native pace, spread over 41 chapters. In a foreign language plan for more: half an hour a day finishes a book of this size in a few weeks.
