A Twentieth Century Woman
No Customer Reviews
A Woman of the 20th Century is the story of a life in the most advanced century ever, one that offered greater technology and knowledge and freedom, as well as more riches to be able to enjoy it.? The big challenge, though, was figuring out how to handle the freedom and use it to have access to all the new wonderful things. The author, Aline, was born into a family whose financial security and class status had been ruined by the sudden unexpected deaths from pneumonia, when her parents were children, of both of her successful grandfathers.? Very soon, she began receiving the message that she was somehow supposed to regain what had been lost, since her parents had been trying very hard to do so but somehow not quite succeeding. The road to success turned out to be through new territory and offered important insights about the emotional needs of humans and the good and bad sides of gender expectations for both men and women.? Two permanent detours made it end in an entirely different place than it would have if she had listened to her family or traveled in earlier centuries.
