Set in the late 19th century, the story follows Bertha Ley, a young woman of independent means who defies societal expectations by marrying her steward, Edward Craddock, on her 21st birthday. Raised in the landed gentry, Bertha possesses a deep appreciation for European culture, particularly Italy's artistic heritage. Despite her traditional views on womanhood, her decision to marry beneath her challenges the norms of her class and highlights her desire for autonomy and knowledge.
