My question: While “Turned” concludes with an idealistic image of female empowerment, to what extent is Gilman’s vision of female community possible in the early twentieth century? On a related note, what happens to women who don’t have friends in high places? For example, what would have happened to Gerta if Mrs. Marroner had not stepped in to assist her?
