 Features of her works
(1) She was one of the few “uneasy survivors of the nineteenth century”. Hanging onto the traditional values, she was never able to come to terms with modernity.(2) Old west becomes in most of her novels the centre of moral reference against which modern existence is measured.(3) She withdraws in her later fiction into the historical past.(4) She often uses women protagonists in her novels.
