I can understand why this book is important--it depicts the many restrictions on femininity in the late 19th Century. It is beautifully written. However, I became a bit impatient with the heroine for her inability to cope with her new and sudden sense of freedom--her freedom makes her childlike in her decisions. Maybe my impatience with the heroine reflect the book's interesting themes and ideas.
