One of Sinclair Lewis' bravest books, considering the times in which he wrote, about a socially impassioned woman, Ann Vickers, who enters the field of social work and rises to become the head of a woman's prison. Full of liberal social commentary about prisoners and the corrections system, and women and their role in politics that probably did not sit well with many Americans. Nevertheless an absorbing and well-written book. ( ) sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

Some reviewers were outraged by Ann Vickers when it first appeared in 1933. "Persons unused to horrid and filthy things had better stay at a safe distance from this book," wrote one. Lewis's Ann Vickers is a complex character: a strong-minded prison superintendent dedicated to enlightened social reform, she also seeks to fulfill herself as a sexual being. Ann Vickers is in all respects her own person, standing up to the confining rules of her society. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
