Beschreibung
At the Gate of Samaria is the story of Clytie Davenant's isolated country upbringing, rebellion from her family, and training as an artist at the Slade. She lives a bohemian lifestyle within the limitations of her community. Her family has a respected position in the small rural town of Durdleham and intends to maintain a good standard for the town's citizens. But Clytie feels like a misfit in her family. Instead of engaging in traditional female pursuits, she wants to become an artist. Unfortunately, she struggles for a long time before following her grand dream. Her poor choice of marriage has a significant effect on her art. This novel emphasizes the condition of women in marriage and the restrictive divorce laws. It shows the banishment that a woman faces if she leaves an unhappy marriage and lives under another man's roof.
