Since her mother's death Jennifer has devoted years of her life to
her father, managing the family home and acting as his secretary.
After the sudden announcement that he has taken a new wife,
Jennifer, at 33, seizes the opportunity to lead an independent
life. Quickly she secures the lease of Rose Cottage and turns her
attention to her own needs and interests. Published in 1931, Father
explores the concept of spinsterhood in a time when the financial
and social status of single women were often dependent on male
family members. While Jennifer is desperate to experience life on
her own terms within her reduced financial means, her neighbour
Alice is pre-occupied with ensuring her position as head of her
brother's household is never challenged.
