{"product_id":"mary-olivier-a-life","title":"Mary Olivier: A Life","description":"Mary Olivier: A Life is a psychological novel by May Sinclair, first published in 1919. It is considered one of Sinclair’s most important works and an early example of modernist psychological fiction. The novel is written in a reflective, introspective style and follows the inner life of Mary Olivier from childhood into adulthood. Rather than focusing on external events, it traces her thoughts, emotions, and spiritual development over time.\nMary grows up in a strict, emotionally constrained Victorian household dominated by her mother’s authority and expectations. As she matures, she becomes increasingly self-aware and intellectually independent, but also deeply conflicted about love, religion, and personal freedom. A central tension in the novel is Mary’s struggle between emotional desire and intellectual or spiritual restraint. She experiences romantic feelings and attachments but often suppresses them due to guilt, duty, or inner conflict. Much of the novel explores how these internal pressures shape her identity.","brand":"Delhi Open books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54549305229591,"sku":"9789371251969","price":105.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6918\/8119\/files\/3535408.webp?v=1785150780","url":"https:\/\/payment.letskitaboo.com\/products\/mary-olivier-a-life","provider":"Kitaboo One eStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
