This is a fantastic book that compares the old witch trials with the pressures and prejudices women face today. While reading this book I admit to feeling really frustrated and angry. It's 2023 and it feels like women are losing rights again 😾

TK-421
Aspects of the Novel | E. M. Forster

“In daily life we never understand each other, neither complete clairvoyance nor complete confessional exists. We know each other approximately, by external signs, and these serve well enough as a basis for society and even for intimacy. But people in a novel can be understood completely by the reader, if the novelist wishes; their inner as well as their outer life can be exposed. ⬇️

TK-421 And this is why they often seem more definite than characters in history, or even our own friends; we have been told all about them that can be told; even if they are imperfect or unreal they do not contain any secrets, whereas our friends do and must, mutual secrecy being one of the conditions of life upon this #globe.” #QuotsyApr20 4y

EadieB @umbrellagirl I had a trip to England/Scotland planned for August and had to cancel because my immune system is not good because I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. Probably lost my deposit too! 4y
umbrellagirl @EadieB That‘s awful. I‘m Scottish but live in the US. I don‘t know when I‘ll be able to get back. I hope you will be able to go eventually, when things calm down. 4y
EadieB @umbrellagirl Hopefully, after the stock market makes up the money that was in our vacation fund as we are retired. 4y
umbrellagirl @EadieB We‘re still working but I‘m afraid to look at my retirement account or my son‘s college fund. I‘m sure it‘s bad, but I don‘t know if I want to know just how bad. 4y
EadieB @umbrellagirl It will come back once the economy gets going again but we still need to wait until virus calms down or we get a vaccine. 4y
