Study of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's poetry and prose with biographical information.

Boston antiques dealer Abby Randolph, betrayed by an old friend, dumped by her lover, and grieving the death of her mom, makes the surprising discovery that an old chamber pot she inherited from her mother once belonged to poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning and is worth nearly one hundred thousand dollars--a fact that brings a lot of people from her past calling.

In 1845, Elizabeth Barrett, having succumbed to the fact that she will be a prisoner in her own home due to her father's insistence that his children will never marry, receives a letter of admiration from Robert Browning, and the two engage in a correspondence which makes her debate defying her dad.
