Customer Reviews

One of the greats of New Woman fiction

In Daughters of Danaus, Mona Caird manages to create a "problem" novel that does not ignore realism, plot, and good characterization. True, the novel is very talky, and a massive proportion of its bulk is a series of arguments between various characters on a woman's place, nature vs. society, and the power of the human will. All the same, the novel is never lacking in interest, and is thoroughly modern in refusing to provide a neat resolution.
