When a duchess meets a jeweller, desire and deception glitter beneath the surface.
The Duchess and the Jeweller by Virginia Woolf is a brilliant short story that examines the relationship between wealth, power, and moral compromise. Set in London's high society, this modernist gem follows Oliver Bacon, a self-made jeweller who is both fascinated and trapped by the aristocratic world he serves.
This sharp, symbolic tale captures Woolf's mastery of form and her critical insight into the performative nature of class, gender, and materialism.
💬 "A miniature masterpiece—rich in irony, layered in meaning, and strikingly relevant."
💎 Why It Still Dazzles Today: A powerful example of stream-of-consciousness and modernist brevity
Ideal for readers of James Joyce, Katherine Mansfield, and Toni Cade Bambara
Perfect for literature courses, feminist studies, and short fiction anthologies
