Easy to read. Produced by Nick Hodson of London, England "The Love Affairs of Pixie" by Mrs. George de Horne Vaizey is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Pixie O'Shaughnessy, the youngest member of the O'Shaughnessy family, as she comes to terms with her maturity, relationships, and what it means to be a woman of her time. Although Pixie feels plain and uncertain about her appearance, she is spirited and imaginative, leading her to dream of love and adventure. The opening of the novel introduces Pixie as she grapples with her self-image on her 20th birthday. Recognizing her perceived lack of beauty, she confides in her sister Bridgie, leading to an engaging, humorous conversation about her looks and the possibility of a cosmetic change. In this lighthearted and candid exchange, Pixie's character emerges as someone who is thoughtful, humorous, and resolutely optimistic about life and love. As the chapter progresses, it is clear that she is not just about to enter a world of romance, but also to embrace the complexities of adulthood, hinting at the emotional and social challenges that await her as she navigates her own “love affairs.” (This is an automatically generated summary.) en Young women -- Juvenile fiction Ireland -- Juvenile fiction PZ Text Browsing: Children & Young Adult Reading Browsing: Literature Browsing: Fiction 470467 2024-10-10T06:57:36.739304 2023-09-10T09:49:22.816576 text/html text/html 487483 2007-10-20T14:02:36 text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 196911 2007-10-20T14:02:36 text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 application/zip 281760 2024-10-10T06:57:46.411250 application/epub+zip 288217 2024-10-10T06:57:40.396270 application/epub+zip 253671 2024-10-10T06:57:38.886287 application/epub+zip 495987 2024-10-10T06:57:50.702758 application/x-mobipocket-ebook 480380 2024-10-10T06:57:45.460291 application/x-mobipocket-ebook 417106 2022-09-11T04:00:18.235721 application/x-mobipocket-ebook 449017 448992 2024-10-10T06:57:35.866293 2023-09-10T09:49:22.013551 text/plain; charset=us-ascii text/plain 448957 2007-10-20T14:02:36 text/plain; charset=us-ascii 175622 2007-10-20T14:02:36 text/plain; charset=us-ascii application/zip 19883 2024-10-10T06:57:50.832734 application/rdf+xml 14044 2024-10-10T06:57:39.432286 image/jpeg 3822 2024-10-10T06:57:39.157290 image/jpeg 275429 2024-10-10T06:57:36.784297 application/octet-stream application/zip Archives containing the RDF files for *all* our books can be downloaded at https://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:Feeds#The_Complete_Project_Gutenberg_Catalog en.wikipedia
