This early work by Charlotte Perkins Gilman was originally published in 1911. Born in Hartford, Connecticut, USA in 1860, Gilman was the great niece of Henry Ward Beecher and Sister to Harriet Beecher Stowe. She went on to become a sociologist and writer of both fiction and non-fiction, with her most notable work being her semi-autobiographical short story , The Yellow Wallpaper. The Crux is a fascinating work and is thoroughly recommended for anyone with an interest in feminist literature. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions.

From the Back Cover:
"With reproductive technologies at the center of feminist, medical, and national debate, "The Crux" offers a fascinating historical perspective on the relationship of reproduction and nationalism. Dana Seitler's introduction offers a useful context in which to read Charlotte Perkins Gilman's quirky, biology-based feminism, her depiction of a women's community in the west, and, generally, the relationship between fiction-writing and the fashioning of gender roles that fueled Gilman's particular brand of activism."--Priscilla Wald, author of "Constituting Americans: Cultural Anxiety and Narrative Form"
About the Author:
