Your Affectionate Godmother

By Elinor Glyn

Your Affectionate Godmother is written as letters to Caroline by her godmother describing to her the values and responsibilities of a "sensible" woman. She writes about the importance of beauty, marriage and advice on how to choose a husband. Elinor Glyn, the author of famous works like Three Weeks, The Point of View, and The Reason Why, was a British novelist and scriptwriter who specialized in romantic fiction, which was considered dishonorable for its time, although her works are relatively tame by modern standards. She popularized the concept of the "It-girl" and had a tremendous influence on early 20th-century pop culture.
