Refractory Husbands is a novel written by American author Mary Stewart Cutting and published in 1920. The story follows the lives of three women who are married to difficult and stubborn men. The women, who come from different backgrounds and social classes, struggle to maintain their marriages as their husbands refuse to compromise or change their ways. The first woman, Lucinda, is married to a wealthy businessman who is obsessed with making money and ignores her emotional needs. The second woman, Sarah, is a middle-class housewife whose husband is an alcoholic and verbally abusive. The third woman, Mary, is a working-class mother whose husband is a lazy and unambitious man.As the women navigate their troubled marriages, they find solace in each other's company and support. Together, they learn to stand up for themselves and fight for their happiness. The novel explores themes of gender roles, class differences, and the challenges of marriage. Refractory Husbands is a poignant and insightful portrayal of women's experiences in early 20th century America. It remains a classic work of feminist literature and continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
