Download The Convert Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The Convert is about the British Suffrage movement, which the author knew well. Part witty and scathing commentary on the upper classes, part political rhetoric quoted directly from open-air meetings, and part muck-raking realism, it moves back and forth between the personal and the political until the two can no longer be distinguished. The Convert uses as its frame the political "conversion" of Vida Levering, a beautiful, upper middle-class woman. We follow Vida's growing discontent with "country weekend" society and her increasing awareness of the common lot of women. Forthright and direct, Elizabeth Robins discusses issues that must have been shocking in 1907: unwed motherhood, the effects of the inequality of women, and the essential disrespect that underlies chivalry. Reminiscent of Jane Austen and foreshadowing the work of Virginia Woolf, The Convert is a fascinating novel. It provides us with a sense of history and a feeling of pride in what women could and did accomplish. It is also disturbing because far too many of the issues are still relevant.

The Messenger is a tale from which is adapted suffragette Elizabeth Robins's famous play, Votes for Women! Robins's was the first play to bring the "street politics of women's suffrage to the stage." Votes for Women! led to a surge in suffrage theater. Excerpt: "After all, we aren't yet living in the millennium, Julian. What I'm afraid of is that someday you'll be wanting to carry these notions of yours beyond the bounds of what's reasonable." "You mean," said the other young man, with a flash in his dark eyes, "you mean you're afraid I may just chance to be honest in my 'notions,' as you call them, of a scheme of social justice."
