The Young Diana by Marie Corelli ~ Full Audiobook [scifi]

The Young Diana by Marie Corelli audiobook.

Genre: scifi

In The Young Diana: An Experiment of the Future, Marie Corelli blends social satire with speculative science to ask a dangerous question: what would you trade for youth? Diana May is a well-bred Englishwoman who has done everything society told her to do and is rewarded with quiet humiliation - jilted after years of faithful waiting, dismissed as a burden by her self-satisfied parents, and treated as though a woman past her first bloom has no meaningful future. When a strange opportunity appears, Diana breaks from her comfortable prison and travels to Switzerland to work for Dr. Feodor Dimitrius, an eccentric scientist whose private research promises a kind of rejuvenation the world is not prepared to understand. The experiment succeeds too well. As Diana's body is remade into startling youthful beauty, her place in society changes overnight - and so do the expectations, temptations, and predators that gather around her. Caught between the doctor who sees her as proof of his genius and a culture that prizes women chiefly for appearance, Diana must confront what remains of the self she fought so hard to build, and what might be lost when nature is forcibly rewritten.
