The Virgin and the Gypsy.

by D. H. Lawrence

A posthumously published novella, the story tells of two sisters seemingly condemned to a drab and joyless existence with their father, a vicar, and their mean-spirited grandmother and aunt. When one of the girls befriends a Gypsy and a young unmarried couple, one of them a Jew, her father threatens to have her admitted to an asylum.
