He deftly demonstrates her portrayal of the conflicting desires of American women as they wrestled with their sense of obligation to traditional gender roles and their catalyzed longing for freedom, independence, and lives of their own. This book makes the case for why we need to keep reading Alice Adams."—Suzanne del Gizzo, Chestnut Hill College
