161 min • 30 juli 2025
Consequences by E. M. Delafield is a haunting, introspective novel that explores the emotional and societal pressures placed on women in early 20th-century England. Following the life of Alex Clare, a sensitive and misunderstood girl born into privilege but suffocated by convention, the story journeys through themes of mental health, alienation, and the dire results of a society that fails to nurture the soul. Delafield—best known for The Diary of a Provincial Lady—crafts a deeply moving psychological portrait of a woman trapped between religious idealism and emotional despair. Consequences is a quietly devastating reflection on the cost of conformity and the fragility of the human spirit. 🎧 Ideal for fans of:
• Virginia Woolf
• Edith Wharton
• Early feminist literature
• Psychological novels
• Stories of women in crisis
