The Woman in White

However, when Walter takes a new position in teaching art he encounters a girl named Laura, whose looks are stunningly similar to those of the woman in white. As the pair fall for one another, the sense of mystery deepens - is there more to their meeting than first meets the eye?

Wilkie Collins was strongly motivated to author her novel by the unequal situation men and women found themselves: at the time, the law overtly deferred to men in matters of inheritance and estate. The book's legacy is towering and significant: in the modern day The Woman in White continues to be voted and rated among the greatest novels ever published by surveys such as the BBC's Big Read and by newspapers such as The Observer.
