The Sea Change of Angela Lewes
Seton, Cynthia Propper
No woman is an island.
In its broadest sense, this novel is concerned with the question of equality between men and women. Angela Lewes is the exemplary wife of an academic, a wonderfully accomplished housewife and mother. As she approaches forty a balky interior independent self begins to emerge from beneath her role-playing and finally brings into question the continuance of a marriage that has been warm and enriching to her.
