The Clever Woman of the Family

Description

Unsatisfied with the rigid gender roles of her small seaside community, Rachel Curtis yearns to use her cleverness to find a purpose in life. Seeking to make the world a better place for women, she dives into intellectual battles, writes opinionated articles, and dreams of liberating oppressed women from lace-making and marriage. Acting as her foils are Lady Temple, a widow with an army of small children, and Miss Williams, a young woman left deformed and scarred by a horrible accident in her youth. As she strives to make her dreams come true, her small community will cause Rachel’s cleverness to be opposed, tried, and tested, making her carefully consider: is she truly the clever woman of the family?
