Description
Marion Draper was a rebel with just cause against the stifling conventions of their time
In the oppressive world of the Victorian middle-class, wives and daughters were expected to live as respectful cabbages and always to obey papa's dictates. The draper family - father, mother and two daughters- were no exception. Given virtually no education, discouraged from independent striving and rigidly separated from 'undesirable' social contacts, Marion Draper had much to rebel against.
