"The Green Bough" by E. Temple Thurston is an English novel set around the women of the 20th century. Excerpt: The life of Mary Throgmorton, viewed as one would scan the chronicles of history, impersonally, without regard to the conventions, is the life of a woman no more than fulfilled in the elements of her being.
