Doctor Cupid: A Novel by Rhoda Broughton

Return to the world of Victorian fiction at its most charming with this complete, unabridged edition of Rhoda Broughton's beloved 1886 novel, Doctor Cupid. Every word of the original text is preserved exactly as first published, presented here with a new modern introduction and reader's notes that illuminate the author's life, the novel's place in her long career, and the social world of courtship, medicine, and village society it so wittily portrays. Broughton, one of the most popular novelists of her generation, brings her signature sparkle to a story of romance and misunderstanding, where a doctor's professional composure is no match for the stirrings of the heart. Whether you are discovering Broughton for the first time or returning to an old favorite, this edition offers the full pleasure of her wit and warmth. Part of The Founding Texts Library.
