O ovoj e-knjizi
Long out of print, Charlotte Perkins Gilman's novel The Crux is an important early feminist work that brings to the fore complicated issues of gender, citizenship, eugenics, and frontier nationalism. First published serially in the feminist journal The Forerunner in 1910, The Crux tells the story of a group of New England women who move west to start a boardinghouse for men in Colorado. The innocent central character, Vivian Lane, falls in love with Morton Elder, who has both gonorrhea and syphilis. The concern of the novel is not so much that Vivian will catch syphilis, but that, if she were to marry and have children with Morton, she would harm the "national stock." The novel was written, in Gilman's words, as a "story . . . for young women to read . . . in order that they may protect themselves and their children to come." What was to be protected was the civic imperative to produce "pureblooded" citizens for a utopian ideal.
O autoru
Gilman (1860-1935) fut une des pionnières du mouvement féministe américain. Sa nouvelle la plus célèbre, The Yellow Wall-Paper aborde le problème de la dépression contre laquelle elle dut lutter. Ses vues sur la folie, la création et la condition féminine ont souvent été rapprochées de celles de Virginia Woolf. Partisane du droit à la mort digne, Gilman se suicida lorsqu’un cancer commença à diminuer ses facultés.
