Published in 1913, this controversial novel—banned for a time—featured the story of Mary O’Neill, a fallen woman ostracized by society for a sexual indiscretion. Caine’s sympathetic portrait of his heroine was too much for Edwardian critics to stomach, but the public made the book one of the best selling of the author’s illustrious career.

About the author
Hall Caine (1853-1931) was a prolific British novelist and playwright. Knighted in 1917, he is all but forgotten today. His major works include Shadow of a Crime (1885), The Bondman (1890), and The Christian (1897), the first novel in Britain to sell over a million copies.
