Precious Bane by Mary Webb
Reimagining of the poetic 1924 novel by the English romantic author Mary Webb: set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic wars in the little village of Shropshire, Prue Sarn is cursed by a cleft lip and palate, which she believes makes her unworthy of ever finding love. Her true colors and tenacity are shown as the story unfolds—her courage tested against the evils of superstition and greed that plague her family.
