Dive into George Gissings 1893 novel, Odd Women, as it boldly confronts the 19th-century Woman Question. Through the lives of three remarkable women—Mary Barfoot, a passionate feminist philanthropist dedicated to empowering women; Rhoda Nunn, who fiercely believes that marriage is a trap for women; and Monica Madden, who must navigate the complexities of marriage after choosing to wed a seemingly benevolent older man—this story explores themes of feminism, love, and the societal expectations of women. As Monica grapples with the realities of married life, Rhoda finds herself irresistibly drawn to Marys alluring yet reckless cousin, Everard. Join us in unraveling the intricate tapestry of choices and consequences that define these womens lives. (Summary by Elizabeth Klett)
