Description

Sarah Grand (10 June 1854 - 12 May 1943) was an Irish feminist writer active from 1873 to 1922.

Her work revolved around the New Woman ideal. Her work dealt with the New Woman in fiction and also in fact; Grand wrote treatises on the subject of the failure of marriage, and her novels may be considered anti-marriage polemics.

Grand holds out the hope of marriage as the holiest and perfect state of union between a man and woman, but deplores the inequality and disadvantages intended to keep young women ignorant, and insists that women should rebel against entrapment in a loveless marriage.

The New Woman novel was a development of the late 19th century.
