Novel 321: Arabella Kenealy, Molly and Her Man of War (1893)

January 18, 2025 David Bywaters

James Jacques Joseph Tissot, Room Overlooking the Harbour


Two cousins tour Italy on a yacht; one falls in love with an American sailor.


Arabella Kenealy (1859-1938) wrote some 25 novels between 1893 and 1917, many with feminist implications.

“A spirit of audacious flippancy and rather determined light-heartedness informs the thing and keeps it moving.” Athenaeum, February 10, 1894

“Rollicking fun and humour enliven every page of Miss Kenealy’s book. . . .  Miss Kenealy is a daring satirist; sometimes she is a savage one. . . .  The story is an antidote for the ‘blues.’” Academy, March 3, 1894
