Violet Paget (1856-1935), also known under the pseudonym Vernon Lee, was a French-born British writer famous for her supernatural fiction and contributions to the field of aesthetics. She also wrote more than a dozen books on a variety of subjects ranging from music to travel, and today she is best remembered for her original ideas and amusing use of irony. First published in 1903, Penelope Brandling is a fantastic example of classic Victorian literature not to be missed by those who have read and enjoyed other novels by Paget. Other notable works by this author include: The Prince of the Hundred Soups: A Puppet Show in Narrative (1883), The Countess of Albany (1884), and Miss Brown (1884). Read & Co.
