What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
A remarkable performance... As gripping as The Collector and The Magus' Observer
Charles Smithson, a respectable engaged man, meets Sarah Woodruff as she stands on the Cobb at Lyme Regis, staring out to sea. Charles falls in love, but Sarah is a disgraced woman, and their romance will defy all the stifling conventions of the Victorian age.
Widely acclaimed since publication, The French Lieutenant's Woman is the best-loved of John Fowles's novels.

Marvellous 1969 novel… You can read this book again and again, always finding something new and always falling in love with the hapless Charles.
