Thomas, Elizabeth Meade, Elizabeth Thomasina Meade, Lillie Mead, L. T. A Bevy of Girls Nick Hodson of London, England "A Bevy of Girls" by L.T. Meade is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Marcia Aldworth, a beloved teacher who must leave a diverse international school in Frankfort to return to her family in England due to her stepmother's illness. As she navigates the complexities of family dynamics and the expectations placed upon her, Marcia strives to balance her sense of duty with her own desires and aspirations. The opening of the novel introduces us to Marcia through her emotional farewell to her students, who come from various backgrounds and cherish her deeply. As she embarks on her journey home, her internal conflict is evident; despite her love for teaching, familial obligations compel her to prioritize her stepmother's needs over her own desires. Upon her return, Marcia quickly assesses the challenges ahead, particularly regarding her self-centered step-sisters who have grown accustomed to an indulgent lifestyle. This sets the stage for her attempts to instill responsibility and share the burden of caregiving within her family while reclaiming her own autonomy.
