by Dorothy Canfield Fisher (Author)

The novel describes the problems of a family in which husband and wife are oppressed and frustrated by the roles that they are expected to play.

Suddenly, through a nearly fatal accident, their roles are reversed; Lester is confined to home in a wheelchair and his wife must work to support the family.
