The manual for good wives

Jaye, Lola2025
Books
To the world, Adeline Copplefield is the epitome of Victorian propriety: an exemplary society lady who writes a weekly column advising young ladies on how to be better wives. Only Adeline has never been a good wife or mother; she has no claim to the Copplefield name, nor is she an English lady. Now a Black woman, born in Africa, who dared to pretend to be something she was not, is on trial in the English courts with all of London society baying for her blood - and she is ready to tell her story.
