(well-brought-up) puritan girls from well-to-do homes
Nie byłem pewien o znaczenie sformułowania "z dobrych domów" - czy chodzi o dobre wychowanie czy pochodzenie z majętnej rodziny, więc podałem oba znaczenia.
well-to-do:
adj.
Prosperous; affluent; well-off.
n. (used with a pl. verb)
Affluent or wealthy people: Demonstrators protested that the tax bill favored the well-to-do.
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/well-to-do
well brought up:
describes people, especially children, who are polite and who act in a quiet and pleasant way, because they have been taught this behaviour at home:
Some children were well brought up, despite family breakdown, he admitted.
[before noun] He was a very well-brought-up young man.
well-to-do:
adj.
Prosperous; affluent; well-off.
n. (used with a pl. verb)

: BARDZO mi się podoba ta propozycja. (Zamieniłbym homes jednak na families- por ang źródła). Doskonale oddaje lekką ironię autorki, operuje dwoma pojęciami well -brought -up/ + well-to-do ...tworząc pewną grę językową

Niewątpliwie - jako Purytanki - z pewnością zachowywały się - purytańsko, ale nie szkodzi upewnić się.
