Its an uncomfortable topic to read about but colonialism was still a thing, and that was the view of women in general and esp of natives on average. Women were by law considered property in the early 1900s/late 1800s, and thats white british women of all classes.
Its a fairly accurate portrayal of the reality of that time, its just the reality was gross.
I wonder where all the people saying ‘its only school libraries’ suddenly are. Adults cant even choose what they want to read at the library.
