|  | The Odd Women by Arlene Young, Elaine Showalter, George Gissing
This book features the stories of women who did not follow the Victorian norm of marriage and instead opted to pursue careers. They often had a hard time making ends meet, however, and their circumstances are contrasted with those of women caught in unhappy marriages. The conflicts between the men and the women in the book are not so different from the conflicts the sexes are still having. AUTHOR: Arlene Young, Elaine Showalter, George Gissing
