My Flirtations is a collection of short stories written by Ella Hepworth Dixon. The book was first published in 1898 and is a reflection of the Victorian era. The stories are centered around the theme of love and relationships, exploring the complexities of courtship and romantic pursuits. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part comprising of stories that are more lighthearted and humorous, while the second part takes a more serious tone, delving into the darker aspects of love and relationships. The stories are set in various locations, including London and Paris, and feature a diverse cast of characters, from wealthy socialites to working-class individuals. Through her stories, Dixon provides a glimpse into the social norms and values of the time, particularly the expectations placed upon women in regards to marriage and family. My Flirtations is a fascinating portrayal of love and relationships in the late 19th century, and remains a beloved classic in English literature.In the dining-room the prim, thin Chippendale furniture was ranged against a pale-coloured wall, while the round table, with its fine damask and Georgian silver, and the soft lamplight illumining a great bowl of flowers, was somehow suggestive of brilliant talk and dainty fare. But Mr. Clancy was always modest about his possessions. 'It's so sweet of you to like my things, ' he would say deprecatingly to some fashionable lady who was going round his rooms sniffing up ideas. 'I never care for anything I have. It's so good of you to like my poor little cottage.'This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
