Suzie heard this book mentioned on Radio 4 I think. The first half of the book contains a selection of short stories, the second half extracts from her non fiction work. She wrote at the turn of the 20th century and was a great feminist and sociologist. It's amazing how forward thinking she was but I have to say that it became a bit like a text book towards the end and not "going to sleep" reading. Would certainly recommend the short stories though and a taster of the essays.
