About this listen

In 1906 I was barely over 14 years old, and it was my wedding day. My older sister, Helen, came to my room, took me by the hand, and sat me down on the bed. She said, "You've always been a good girl, Maude, and done what I told you. Now you're going to be a married woman, and he will be the head of the house. When you go home tonight after your party, no matter what he wants to do to you, you have to let him do it. Do you understand?" I didn't understand, but I nodded my head anyway. It sounded strange to me, the way so many things did. I would do what she told me. I didn't have a choice, any more than I'd had a choice in being born.

This was a decent book . I wish the characters were more developed and the story had more depth. The writing was amateurish but It was definitely not boring and it kept me interested. However, the narrator was simply awful! Read this book instead.

I feel like I know Maude. Every time I crack open an egg, I scrape out all of its contents and think of her struggling in the 30’s.
People think that they have it hard. Pfffft. You never met Maude.

I love Maude
