The Flapper Wife
On the last night of her girlhood, a beautiful young woman stands over an heirloom wedding dress and vows that her marriage will be nothing like her mother's. She has spent two years typing other people's letters, and she is finished with drudgery. The quiet, well-to-do lawyer who adores her is her ticket out-out of the shabby house, the seven o'clock alarm, the endless mending basket.
What she wants is leisure, admiration, and beautiful things, and she intends to have all three. But a new husband comes with a mother-in-law, a mortgage, and firm opinions about economy, and the honeymoon glow fades faster than the bills arrive. Then a handsome actor from her past returns to town, and the rules she has always played by begin to feel dangerously negotiable.
