Pink and White Tyranny A Society Novel

Originally published in 1871, Pink and White Tyranny is, seemingly, a light, comic story about a frivolous young girl who marries for money. However, as with most of Beecher Stowe's writings, things are not what they appear on the surface. This "society novel," instead, is a critique of the nineteenth-century's dominant view that women should use their femininity to gain power. Reflective of Stowe's progressive moral and domestic views, the novel is a refreshing work of social satire that showcases Stowe's comic abilities as well as her progressive views.Stowe, Harriet Beecher is the author of 'Pink and White Tyranny A Society Novel', published 2003 under ISBN 9781410104403 and ISBN 1410104400.
