Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Glory_of_Clementina_Wing Produced by Marcia Brooks, Al Haines, Jen Haines & the online Project Gutenberg team at http://www.pgdpcanada.net "The Glory of Clementina Wing" by William John Locke is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The book centers around the character Clementina Wing, a talented but cynical portrait painter in a quiet area of London. The narrative explores themes of artistic ambition, gender roles, and the complexities of relationships through Clementina's interactions, particularly with a young man named Tommy Burgrave and her uncle, Dr. Ephraim Quixtus. At the start of the story, we meet Clementina in her studio where she is painting a young girl while conversing with Tommy, who is both a neighbor and a budding artist. Their dialogue reveals Clementina's disdain for traditional femininity and her struggles with the expectations placed on women, contrasting sharply with her raw artistic talent. As she reflects on her past, particularly a tragic love story that shaped her character, the opening delves into her emotional turmoil and determination to find independence through her art, setting the stage for deeper explorations of her complexities and the challenges that lie ahead in both her career and relationships.
