The novel deftly navigates themes of ownership, morality, and the struggle for identity, using vivid characterizations to reflect the prevailing societal tensions of its time, particularly regarding class disparities and personal aspiration. Octave Thanet, born Alice French, was a prominent figure in American literature known for her incisive social commentary and deep understanding of human nature.
