We are all equal under the law. However, even in these more modern times that is not an absolute and still remains a distant ambition for many. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003eIn the days when Britain ruled the waves and bestrode the world as its policeman and plunderer in chief it also subjugated half of its own people to second class status. Women were chattel and property. There were some exceptions based on wealth and birthright but for the overwhelming majority your lot was to fall in with the rules and do as you were told. Many did.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003eBut whilst male society sought to place obstacles in the path to equality, it could not deny their literary talents, which many times they circumvented by using male pseudonyms. However, the soaring sales of magazines and periodicals during the Victorian Age meant they had voracious appetites for literature, whatever the sex of its gender.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003eDozens of authors appeared to fill the need. Narratives had new ideas. Characters were emboldened by societal changes and the female voice taking responsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003eThe women included here are talents that dazzle. Put them up against anyone and they rise to the top. Whether they remain with an avid readership today or faded to obscurity with the passing of the times their quality remains undimmed. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e1 - Women of Wonder - Love - An Introduction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e2 - Life of Ma Parker by Katherine Mansfield\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e3 - Uncle Abraham's Romance by Edith Nesbit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e4 - Here We Are by Dorothy Parker\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e5 - Some Ways of Love by Charlotte Mew\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e6 - The Muse's Tragedy by Edith Wharton\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e7 - The Sexton's Hero by Elizabeth Gaskell\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e8 - A Middle Sized Artist by Charlotte Perkins Gilman\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e9 - The Mortal Immortal by Mary Shelley\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e10 - A Spirit Elopement by Clotilde Graves\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e11 - A Story of a Wedding Tour by Margaret Oliphant\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e12 - The Locket by Kate Chopin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e13 - On the Gull's Road by Willa Cather\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e14 - The Canary by Katherine Mansfield\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e15 - May Afternoon by Catherine Wells\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e16 - The Night Before Thanksgiving by Sarah Orne Jewett\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e17 - The Oculist by Catherine Wells\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e18 - The Dream by Mary Shelley\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e19 - The Dance by Zona Gale\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e20 - The Dark Cottage by Mary Cholmondeley\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e21 - The Way the World Is by Zona Gale\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e22 - Psychology by Katherine Mansfield\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e23 - The Shape of Fear by Elia W Peattie\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e24 - Those Who Wait by Ethel Dell\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e25 - An Unexpected Fare by Mary Tuttiett writing as Maxwell Gray\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e26 - A New England Nun by Mary E Wilkins Freeman\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e27 - White Magic by Ella D'Arcy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e28 - A Symphony in Lavender by Mary Wilkins E Freeman\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e29 - The Mass for the Dead by Edith Nesbit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e30 - Fantomina or, Love in a Maze - Part 1 by Eliza Haywood\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"“MsoNormal”\"\u003e31 - Fantomina or, Love in a Maze - Part 2 by Eliza Haywood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Deadtree Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43435552964686,"sku":"AB-41945","price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1194\/4786\/files\/9781803541945_Women_of_Wonder_-_Love.jpg?v=1771426794","url":"https:\/\/www.deadtreepublishing.com\/en-gb\/products\/wonder-of-women-love-stories-audiobook","provider":"Deadtree Publishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
