Falling Angels by Tracy Chevalier

Set in the early 20th century, the story explores the lives of two families, the Waterhouses and the Colemans, whose paths cross in a London cemetery. Through the eyes of two young girls, Maude Coleman and Lavinia Waterhouse, the narrative delves into themes of social change, class differences, and the evolving roles of women during the Edwardian era. As the girls' friendship develops amidst the backdrop of suffragette movements and societal expectations, the novel paints a vivid picture of a time of transformation and the personal struggles that accompany it.
