A Sweet Girl Graduate
Produced by Nick Hodson of London, England
"A Sweet Girl Graduate" by L.T. Meade is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Priscilla Penywern Peel, a young woman embarking on her college life at St Benet's College for Women. The narrative explores her transition from a simple life on a Devonshire farm to the challenges of academia, where she must navigate friendships, personal aspirations, and societal expectations while shouldering the responsibility of her family. The opening portion of the novel establishes Priscilla’s character and her close relationship with her Aunt Raby, who has supported her educational journey despite their modest means. As Priscilla prepares to leave her childhood home, she expresses a mix of excitement and anxiety about the future. Upon arriving at college, she grapples with homesickness and the social dynamics of her peers, feeling out of place due to her plain demeanor and financial limitations. Her determination to succeed and her initial encounters with other students set the stage for her journey of self-discovery and growth in a new environment filled with both opportunities and challenges.
