The White Morning

German Countess Gisela Neibuhr is feeling decidedly disappointed with the course her country appears to be going in. A talented writer, Gisela decides to rebel the only way she knows how – through her writing. First published in 1918, the novel was inspired by world events of the time and is a powerful exploration of the social standing of women during wartime, their dissatisfaction with the world around them, and their lack of agency within it. With a strong and inspirational female lead, 'The White Morning' is a powerful novel by the feminist author Gertrude Atherton.-
