Alvina Houghton is undeniably a lost girl, trapped in the confines of her middle-class upbringing and yearning for escape. In this often-overlooked novel by Lawrence, her journey is infused with a touch of humor and picaresque charm. After losing her perpetually ill mother and her ineffectual, cross-dressing father, Alvina fears she will be forever entwined with the eternal spinsters of her dreary mining community in Woodhouse. Just as her life seems to settle into monotony, a vibrant troupe of traveling performers, the Natcha-Kee-Tawara, bursts onto the scene, bringing a whirlwind of chaos and possibility. Among them is Ciccio, a brooding horseman whose intense presence captivates Alvina, pushing her toward an uncertain future. Will she find her way to perdition, or will she embrace the paradoxical freedom that comes with being lost? (Summary by Martin Geeson)Copyright Fiction Classics 戯曲・演劇
