Ladies Must Live is a novel written by Alice Duer Miller and published in 1917. The book tells the story of a young woman named Lily Cardew who is determined to live life on her own terms, despite the restrictions placed on women in early 20th century society. Lily is a feminist and a suffragette who dreams of becoming a successful writer, but her family and society expect her to marry well and conform to traditional gender roles.As Lily navigates her way through the challenges of being a modern woman in a patriarchal world, she meets a variety of characters, including other suffragettes, artists, and activists. She also falls in love with a man who shares her progressive views but is from a different social class.The novel explores themes of gender roles, class, and the struggle for women's rights. It also offers a glimpse into the social and political landscape of the early 20th century, including the suffrage movement and the impact of World War I on women's lives.Overall, Ladies Must Live is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a powerful message about the importance of women's autonomy and agency in a world that often seeks to limit them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
