A thoughtful little novel that looks at 4 Swiss women on 1 Feb 1959--the day the men of Switzerland voted against giving women the right to vote. These 4 women, all connected, represent the different choices Swiss women could make in their lives, and how no matter what women chose, men still had control of their lives. These men run the gamut from kind to cruel to criminal, but all expect the women in their lives to serve at their whim.
