Bøker av May Sinclair

* Spare and deft, The Life and Death of Harriett Frean is the quintessential modernist novel* Sinclair's work is hugely important in terms of the development of the novel and the representation of women's lives

Born in 1865, Mary Olivier is the youngest of four. Mamma, the archetype of all women who rule through weakness and suffering, dominates her Victorian household, idolizing her sons, rejecting the independent love of her only daughter. Mary, in response, both adores and hates her mother.
