Mothers to Men

Description of the book

Mothers to Men is a modern realist novel by renowned novelist and storyteller Zona Gale. Through this work, she has attempted to bring public attention to the forgotten time and forgotten values of the Friendship Village, a place facing the changes of the 20th century. Gale told the tale beautifully with humor and ease. She wrote about the women and men of that village as they dealt with an abandoned child, women's rights, and suffrage. One of the most prominent themes throughout the novel is wealth versus values. Like all her earlier works, Gale wrote this one with a unique style and wonderfully presented all the intriguing characters.
