One sister remains in the Cape, marries and has children, the other becomes a kept woman and then a prostitute in London's East End. But, the novel asks, how far are marriage and prostitution really apart in a world where women are valued mainly for their bodies? From exploring white women's confinement to domesticity, the novel expands its gaze to include black women and girls, whose presence gradually informs Rebekah's struggle to re-create herself and educate her children (including her black foster-child) so that they may pursue a more humane and fulfilled destiny than was open to her generation. The new edition of From Man to Man, edited by Dorothy Driver, corrects the editorial and proofreading errors that marred previous editions. It also provides another ending, in Schreiner's own words, as told in a letter to a friend."--Back cover. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 475-480). 505 0 $a Introduction to the new edition (2015) -- Note on the text -- Introduction to the first edition (1926) -- From man to man, or, Perhaps only -- Appendix 1: The projected endings -- Appendix 2: Genesis and composition of the novel -- Recipients of letters. 650 0 $a Women $x Social conditions $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Women $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176947 651 0 $a South Africa $v Fiction. 651 7 $a South Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204616 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 700 1 $a Driver, Dorothy, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317013237.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0009B8D29F4311EBBB7E29A634ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
