Limbo by Carobeth Laird

A Memoir

"Limbo" is an autobiographical account that delves into the life of a woman who, after enduring an oppressive marriage to a renowned anthropologist, finds her own voice and identity. The narrative explores her journey of self-discovery, intellectual growth, and eventual emancipation from the shadows of her husband's domineering personality. Through her experiences among the Native American tribes they studied and her personal reflections, the author offers a candid and poignant exploration of her struggle for personal liberation and intellectual independence in the early 20th century, a time when women's roles were largely confined to the domestic sphere.
