| Summary | "A Daughter of the Morning" by Zona Gale is a novel written in the early 20th century. It explores the life of the protagonist, Cosma Wakely, a young woman grappling with her identity, family expectations, and her desire for independence. As she navigates her challenging home life and societal constraints, she seeks to discover her own path, leading her to escape to the city in search of a job and a new life. The opening of the novel introduces us to Cosma's turbulent life at home with her parents and the oppressive atmosphere of farm life. She reveals her frustrations with her mother's complaints and her father's gruff demeanor while dreaming of writing a book. Characters such as Mis' Bingy and Luke hint at the struggles women face in a patriarchal society, as Mis' Bingy endures an abusive marriage, and Luke represents societal pressure on women to marry. When events lead Cosma to help Mis' Bingy escape her abusive husband, Cosma ultimately decides to leave her family and seek a new life in the city, driven by a desire for autonomy and self-discovery. The beginning sets the stage for her transformational journey, highlighting her internal conflicts and the harsh realities facing women in her society. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
