Muriel: The Foundling and Other Original Poems (1886)
Andrew Ramsay
JANE’S house will be her refuge. Here she can lick her wounds. She needs tenants to finance it-business types who will be out at work all day and, hopefully, away visiting friends on the weekends. But she gets… ISI-whose truculent attitude hides the despair of lost dreams. Confined to a wheelchair after an industrial accident, she contemplates suicide. After her comes… MARGARET-whose calm serenity hides deep guilt that she lives while her daughter is dead. What is the point of life? Hers is over. And… JULIA-whose beauty and sophistication give no clue to her background of poverty and abuse. Humiliation has led to a breakdown that has robbed her of confidence. Can the four women help each other to overcome their problems? Will the house shelter them until, with mended wings, the birds can fly again?
