"Milly Darrell" by M. E. Braddon is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the life of Milly Darrell, a young girl who begins her journey as a governess pupil in a school, reflecting the challenges and social circumstances faced by women in that era. The narrative explores themes of friendship, emotional turmoil, and the complications of family dynamics, particularly through the lens of Milly's relationships with others, including her father and her new acquaintances. The opening of "Milly Darrell" introduces us to the titular character as she arrives at Albury Lodge in Yorkshire to begin her duties as a pupil to the Miss Bagshots. Despite her father's intentions to help her gain independence through education, Milly is met with a sense of melancholy as she reflects on the happiness she has left behind at home. The narrative captures her initial feelings of loneliness and disillusionment with her new surroundings, but also hints at the key friendships she will cultivate, particularly with Milly herself. Through a chance encounter with another student named Mary Crofton, we see the beginning of a deep bond that may play a significant role in Milly's development throughout the novel.
