About this book
In the early 20th century, societal expectations weighed heavily on women, particularly mothers navigating the complexities of family life. "Things" by Alice Duer Miller intricately examines these dynamics, revealing the psychological struggles that arise from personal sacrifice and the relentless pressures of conformity. Through the lens of motherhood, Miller explores the unspoken burdens that women carry, challenging the notion of self-worth tied to familial roles. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this poignant narrative invites readers to reflect on the evolving roles of women and the societal constructs that shape their identities. With its rich character development and emotional depth, "Things" remains a vital exploration of the human experience.
