Private Life by Jane Smiley

3.0

Don't read this if boring characters who never do anything bother you... I like her style for some reason and I got into Margaret's life even though she should have left her husband so many times. she does eventually grow some backbone although it's too late and even then it's not enough. But it's a good look at a woman's options in the early 20th century, she didn't have many.
