The Victorian Chaise-Longue by Marghanita Laski

4.0

A short but mystifying read reminiscent of The Yellow Wallpaper, with a time travel twist: it reads a bit like a parable about maternal ambivalence or postpartum depression, but I’m not sure if it suggests that too little has changed around gender roles between the Victorian era and the 1950s, or that things have thankfully improved in the later era.
