Liberated Woman

A different time, a different place, but you will live this story as if it were your own

Married Woman's Property
Act of 1893
New South Wales
Henceforth when a woman marries her property shall remain her own

With the passing of the Married Woman's Property Act, Kitty Barron no longer needs to fear losing Redwoods should she choose to marry again. But her existence is safe and settled, if unexciting, and she is content with life as it is - until a chance meeting changes her mind. Meanwhile, her daughter Joy is emerging from pubescence into young womanhood, and longs to explore the world beyond Bulahdelah. When she and her friend Lily go to England to enjoy a London Season, the experiences they encounter force Joy to grow up in a hurry.
