An excellent study of the impact societal norms and mores had on women in the 1930s, told through a series of vignettes over a 7 year period concerning a group of 7 female friends. Incredibly enjoyable and thought-provoking. The images and questions it left me with will stay with me for a long time. Highly recommend to fans of historic lit and those with an interest in women's studies.
