Mrs. Warren's Daughter is a continuation, in novel form, of George Bernard Shaw's controversial play, Mrs. Warren's Profession. In the play, Vivie Warren, an emancipated young woman recently graduated from University, disavows her mother Kitty when she learns that Kitty's fortune comes from an ownership share in an international string of brothels, and that Kitty herself was once a prostitute. This novel, written by a world renowned botanist, explorer, and colonial administrator, follows Vivie's personal and political adventures through her involvement in the Suffragist movement and the years leading up to and during World War I. - Summary by Jacquerie (13 hr 39 min)

This surprisingly entertaining, exciting, and creative story of historical fiction was so well woven between events of the early twentieth century and the main characters, that this listener was enthralled by their gravity in depth and captured by the excellent written quality of the novel. This is in short, an incredibly compelling story that has multiple plot lines with very likable characters. It’s an amazing entertaining work. Thank you Ms. Dufour for all your wonderful work in your beautiful reading of this exceptional book. Please continue bringing us such quality literature to our eager ears!
