“Indeed Sostrata did not wish Simo to speak to her. Her mind was filled with one long obstinate exclamation at the stupidity of men. Only a woman's mind could foresee all the harm that would result from such a marriage as the one now being weighed.”
Wilder’s timeless and universal study of the inner life of characters passing through circumstances common to domestic life, set on the obscure Greek island of Brynos before the birth of Christ.
