My first Hardy and I want to read more.

A harsh lesson in the Social and political constraints of the day particularly with regard to power balance between the genders particularly once the sexual rubicon has been crossed. 

However it is also good to know that in what ever age you live in in being kind and generous is always better than being bitter and twisted.
