Maria Edgeworth1 editions

What started out as a play that Edgeworth couldn’t get produced, The Absentee turned into the dynamic story Lord Macaulay compared to The Odyssey. The Absentee is the story of Irish landlords transplanted to England whose primary concern is not with their work but with the dazzling social world.
