The Rebel of the Family (1880) is the first New Woman novel by Eliza Lynn Linton. Perdita Winstanley, the novels protagonist, struggles to balance the competing demands of her snobbish, conservative mother and sisters, her radical friends in the womens rights movement, and an admirable but lowborn chemist and his family. The Rebel of the Family also includes what is perhaps the first literary portrait of the lateVictorian lesbian community in London, featuring Bell Blount and her little wife Connie. This Broadview edition includes a critical introduction and appendices that help to set the work in its historical and literary contexts.
