But first, she has to get accepted to the college. But Vicky is determined to go to the Royal College of Art to study painting, and if her parents won't support her, she'll take the independence that she thinks marriage will give her and pursue her career as an artist that way instead. Either she marries the man that her parents have picked out for her, or she is to be shipped off to live as a companion with her aunt in Norfolk. After she's expelled from her Parisian finishing school for posing nude in her art class, her family decide that she's had her own way for too long. Victoria Darling is an aspiring artist in a society where female artists aren't given opportunities or taken seriously. Set in Edwardian London, Sharon Biggs Waller's debut A Mad Wicked Folly is a lush, addictive story of art, independence and Suffragettes.
