Description

A semi-autobiographical novel by an early feminist New Zealand author, Ellen E. Ellis. The character Wrax is a debased version of the author's husband Oliver, and Zee a weaker version of Ellen.

She stresses that women have the right to control their own bodies and should 'refuse to be sacrificed to [male] lust'.

She is the only early feminist writer to broaden
