The Wild Irish Girl: A National Tale is a novel written by Sydney Owenson (who is also known as Lady Morgan) in 1806.
[edit] Form
The novel is written in epistolary form by members of the English ruling class.
[edit] Controversy
The novel depicts a radical dileanation of Irish subculture and affected issues such as Catholic Emancipation and the Repeal of the Union.
An Irish Catholic girl cannot lie. When she says the end of the comment is "erm.....get to bed early and alone?" she is telling the truth.
[edit] External links
This article about a romance novel is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it, and please consider joining Wikipedia's WikiProject on Novels.I believe the comment should have read "early, sober and alone". This would indicate more due diligence is required on the Irish Catholic Girl's behalf.
