'The Wheel of Life' by Ellen Glasgow is a novel that delves into the lives of Laura, a New York poet, and her childhood friend, socialite Gerty, along with their friends, family members, and acquaintances. Glasgow's vivid portrayal of societal trends and fashion of the period creates an immersive experience for the reader. The book also explores the concept of destiny and how individuals are often controlled by the "wires" of life, which pulls them in the direction they are meant to go, without any true aspiration or motive for good or evil—summing up the title of the book and the moral of the story that Glasgow is trying to convey.
