A review by louisebray
Liza of Lambeth by W. Somerset Maugham

4.0

I didn't have a clue what I was getting into when I picked up this book, but it was quite harrowing to say the least. I think the main theme covered throughout the book is the abuse and inequality women were subjected to (and still are in some cases) in a very patriarchal society, which made for very uncomfortable reading throughout. I think (or hope) that was intentional, and it really tugged at my heartstrings. A very good, thought-provoking book.
