alexhoward 's review for:
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall
by Anne Brontë
Anne Bronte pulls no punches when it comes to criticisms of a woman's role in society, I feel like she would have been a good person to sit down and have a drink with (probably non-alcoholic, given what happens in the story)
"You would have us encourage our sons to prove all things by their own experience, while our daughters must not even profit by the experience of others"
Mansplaining in the 19th Century - "Suffice it to say, that I found him very troublesome, and very hard to convince that I really meant what I said"
"I should like to be less of a pet and more of a friend"
"'My nature was not originally calm,' said I. 'I have learned to appear so by dint of hard lessons and many repeated efforts.'"
