The Odd Women

George Gissing

The Odd Women

A novel of social realism, The Odd Women reflects the major sexual and cultural issues of the late nineteenth century. Set in a grimy, fog-ridden London, Gissing's "odd" women range from the idealistic, financially self-sufficient Mary Barfoot to the Madden sisters who struggle to subsist in low paying jobs and little chance for joy. Gissing portrays contemporary society's blatant ambivalence towards its own period of transition. Astonishingly ahead of its time, "The Odd Women" is a pioneering work of early feminism, judged by contemporary critics to be as provocative as Zola and Ibsen
