Tales and Novels — Volume 03

Belinda is an 1801 novel by the Irish writer Maria Edgeworth. The novel was Edgeworth's second published, and was considered controversial in its day for its depiction of an interracial marriage between Lucy and Juba.

The first half of the novel is concerned with the blooming friendship between Belinda and Lady Delacour…_x000D_
