Over a century old and they're still complaining? Sheesh.Edna Pontellier was a loose woman of low moral fibre, hardly a model for our youth. We should have them all reading Pamela.

The book was "re-discovered" in 1969 by the counter-culture and promoted in schools. The "hero" left her husband and children for a younger man. When that fell through, she committed suicide rather than return to that dreadful family stuff. Yeah, a great role model for kids....
