About this book
In the early 20th century, societal norms dictated the course of personal lives, particularly in matters of marriage and social status. "Untuvan avioliitto" by Gyp delves into these intricate dynamics through the eyes of Coryse, a young woman grappling with the weight of an impending proposal from the affluent and much older d'Aubi. As she navigates the expectations of her time, themes of love and personal agency emerge, challenging the rigid conventions surrounding marriage. This novel is essential reading for students and civic activists interested in gender roles and class structures, offering a poignant exploration of the choices women faced in a world that often prioritized wealth over individual desires.
