Set in Victorian England, this novel delves into the lives of single women navigating societal constraints and gender roles. The story centers on Rhoda Nunn, a symbol of independence who challenges societal expectations and advocates for women's rights. Through her experiences and those of her peers, the narrative reveals the injustices and double standards of the time, particularly regarding marriage and financial dependence. Gissing poignantly portrays these "odd women" as they strive for autonomy and fulfillment in a patriarchal society, defying traditional norms.
