My work as a writer includes tragic novels and short stories that treat as a continuous theme fidelity in marriage, the need of women for work and maintenance and marital conflicts. Sometimes death and isolation are the only choice to be brought to the women of the society. The procedures described in the narratives views were criticized as brutal and naive.

The book vividly describes how the conventional social life of that time looked like.
