The General's Will: An emotive and poignant story about a wealthy head of the family close to death and chooses to change how he divides his estate

Written by Vera Jehilovsky

Narrated by Mark Rice-Oxley

The Ukrainian writer Vera Jelihovsky was born on the 29th April 1835. At that time Ukraine, or Little Russia as it was also called, was part of the Russian Empire.

Vera was also the sister of Helena Blavatsky, herself a noted writer and a co-founder of the Theosophical Society.

As a writer Vera’s works rests mainly on her children’s stories and little of any of her work is known in the West.

‘The General’s Will’ is a fascinating story of a dying man who tries, with the writing of a new Will, to right the wrongs his second marriage has caused to the children of his first.

His scheming second wife attempts to change that. But will her selfish plan succeed?

Vera Jelihovsky died on the 17th May 1896. She was 61.
