In this deeply autobiographical novel, George Egerton gives readers a glimpse into the life she tried desperately to keep private, and she allows insight into her most profound feelings about her life, her marriage, and her yearning for a freedom society wouldn't allow. In The Wheel of God, Egerton follows the life of Mary Desmond, a woman who shares Egerton's own hardships: being forced to grow up too fast due to parental neglect, struggling to be self-sufficient and remain her own person after marriage, and finding her place as a woman in a society on the verge of seeing women as people. Much like its author, The Wheel of God is a forgotten gem of the 1890s, and a must-read for enthusiasts of the New Woman literary genre.
