Secret Marriage by 3978551|Kathleen Thompson Norris book cover

πŸ“˜ Secret Marriage

Pretty young Mary Burleigh said *yes* when Calvin Tait proposed to her. She was only nineteen, and it was the first time any man had asked to marry her. She didn't know for sure whether she loved him or not, but she desperately needed comfort and a helping hand because the death of her mother left her as the responsible head of a large and penniless family. Mary was to regret that decision bitterly. First, both she and Cal agreed that their marriage had best be kept secret, for he wasn't earning enough to support a wife and she was determined to keep the Burleigh family together and get the debts paid off. But the day Mary met Jeffery Maclean she knew beyond a doubt what real love meant... To be nineteen and in love and married to the wrong man is a tragic burden...

Anarchy and the Sex Question by 8864722|Emma Goldman book cover

πŸ“˜ Anarchy and the Sex Question

Summary:For Emma Goldman, the "High Priestess of Anarchy," anarchism was "a living force in the affairs of our life, constantly creating new conditions," but "the most elemental force in human life" was something still more basic and vital: sex. "The Sex Question" emerged for Goldman in multiple contexts, and we find her addressing it in writing on subjects as varied as women's suffrage, "free love," birth control, the "New Woman," homosexuality, marriage, love, and literature. It was at once a political question, an economic question, a question of morality, and a question of social relations. But her analysis of that most elemental force remained fragmentary, scattered across numerous published (and unpublished) works and conditioned by numerous contexts. Anarchy and the Sex Question draws together the most important of those scattered sources, uniting both familiar essays and archival material, in an attempt to recreate the great work on sex that Emma Goldman might have given us. In the process, it sheds light on Goldman's place in the history of feminism. --Provided by publisher
