Explore "The Home, Its Work and Influence" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
In offering this study to a public accustomed only to the unquestioning / acceptance of the home as something perfect, holy, quite above / discussion, a word of explanation is needed.
First, let it be clearly and definitely stated, the purpose of this / book is to maintain and improve the home. Criticism there is, deep and / thorough; but not with the intention of robbing us of one essential / element of home life -- rather of saving us from conditions not only / unessential, but gravely detrimental to home life. Every human being / should have a home; the single person his or her home; and the family / their home.
