Shirley

Shirley is a woman of independent means; her friend Caroline is not. Both struggle with what a woman's role is and can be. Their male counterparts - Louis, the powerless tutor, and Robert, his cloth-manufacturing brother - also stand at odds to society's expectations.

Shirley este o femeie cu mijloace financiare independente; prietena ei, Caroline, nu. Amandoua se lupta cu rolul unei femei si cu ceea ce poate fi.
