Charlotte Mary Yonge 
Abbeychurch [EPUB ebook] 
Or Self Control and Self Conceit

Written when the author was in her early twenties, and now regarded as Yonge’s first serious work of fiction, Abbeychurch grapples with both serious theological issues pertaining to the schism between Broad, High and Low factions in the Church of England, as well as with the struggles of ego and impulse that are common in adolescence and early adulthood. A gripping and sophisticated example of women’s nineteenth-century fiction.
