| Summary | "Lilith: A Novel" by Emma Dorothy Eliza Nevitte Southworth is a work of fiction likely written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds around the character of Tudor Hereward, a man grappling with the despair of losing his wife, Lilith, who has been brutally murdered. As Tudor navigates his grief and the aftermath of this tragic event, themes of suspicion, identity, and the search for truth emerge, inviting readers into a complex narrative about love, loss, and redemption. At the start of the novel, Tudor Hereward is recuperating on a lovely May morning amidst a scene of beauty that he cannot appreciate due to the overwhelming weight of his sorrow over Lilith's death. His life has become a dull shadow of its former self, haunted by visions of her cruel murder. The opening reveals the support he receives from friends and family, though a new and significant twist arises when an aged woman, Aunt Adah, expresses an urgent desire to reveal a secret about Lilith's fate. This leads to a declaration that the body identified as Lilith's may actually belong to another victim, a revelation that sparks a ray of hope in Tudor's bleak existence and sets the stage for a quest for truth and reconciliation.
