Description

1922 1st ed HG Wells The Secret Places of the Heart Feminism Romance Psychology

"The Secret Places of the Heart" is a novel by H.G. Wells, first published in 1922. The book tells the story of Richard Hardy, a successful journalist who is dissatisfied with his life and relationships. After meeting a woman named Dr. Martineau, he undergoes psychoanalysis to confront and work through his personal struggles. Along the way, Hardy reflects on his past relationships and experiences, while also considering the implications of modern scientific and philosophical thought. The novel is considered to be a commentary on the human condition and the challenges of personal growth, self-discovery, and navigating relationships. Curiously, the inspiration for the book is widely believed to be the extramarital relationship Wells had with famous feminist, Margaret Sanger.
