"The Life and Death of Harriett Frean" is a novel written by May Sinclair in
1922. The story revolves around Harriett, a woman who is so afraid of life
that she avoids living it. Raised to be the ideal Victorian woman, Harriett
takes pride in her self-sacrifice, believing it to be the highest form of
love. However, when she falls in love with her best friend's fiance, she is
forced to question her beliefs. Choosing not to follow her heart, Harriett
spends the rest of her life trying to convince herself that she made the right
decision. The novel has been described as a "small, perfect gem of a book" by
author Jonathan Coe. It is the only May Sinclair novel currently in print and
has been republished multiple times. Additionally, it was adapted into a BBC
television show in 1986.
