Book Description
Arthur Stuart-Menteth Hutchinson, commonly known by his initials A. S. M. Hutchinson, was a British novelist. 'This Freedom' is his mystery novel. "[...]Rosalie's earliest apprehension of the world was of a mysterious and extraordinary world that revolved entirely about her father and that entirely and completely belonged to her father. Under her father, all males had proprietory rights in the world and dominion over it; no females owned any part of the world or could do anything with it. All the males in this world—her father, and Robert and Harold her brothers, and all the other boys and men one sometimes saw—did mysterious and extraordinary things; and all the females in this world—her mother, and Anna and Flora and Hilda her sisters, and Ellen the cook and Gertrude the maid—did ordinary[...]".

Book Description
"This Freedom" is a novel about a young British woman growing up in a poor family just to understand that the world she lives in totally belongs to men. Yet, she decides to change that, first by hard studying and then by building a successful career. She also falls in love and starts a perfect marriage where she and her husband have equal roles and equal career success. Yet, over time, problems start, and the protagonist has to make hard choices to balance work and family life. Although written a century ago and first perceived as anti-feminist, this book has a deep sense and remains topical today – as the work-life balance problem is as persistent today as it was a hundred years ago.

The Blunt Affair

The Blunt Affair PDF Author: Jonathan Bolton
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 1526148455
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 229

Book Description
The case of the Cambridge spies has long captured the public’s attention, but perhaps never more so than in the wake of Anthony Blunt’s exposure as the fourth man in November 1979. With the Cold War intensifying, patriotism running high during the Falklands War and the AIDS crisis leading to widespread homophobia, these notorious traitors were more relevant than ever. This book explores how they were depicted in literature, television and film throughout the 1980s. Examining works by an array of distinguished writers, including Dennis Potter, Alan Bennett, Tom Stoppard and John le Carré, it sheds new light on the affair, asking why such privileged young men chose to betray their country, whether loyalty to one’s friends is more important than patriotism and whether we can really trust the intelligence services.
