Glaspell's life is a feminist tale of pioneering in which she broke new ground for women. A journalist by age eighteen, she worked her way through university as a news reporter and became a leading novelist of the period. A co-founder of many of Greenwich Village's important avant-garde institutions, she was a close friend of its leading figures, including\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEugene O'Neill. She and O'Neill were equally credited with launching a new type of indigenous drama, hers addressing such pressing topics as suffrage, birth control, female sexuality, marriage equality, socialism, and pacifism. In 1931 she won the Pulitzer Prize for drama.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Books and Crannies Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58167431496063,"sku":null,"price":2.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0602\/3902\/0229\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_76f3bf26-7e4b-48ef-afaf-9d04e458039e.jpg?v=1786544821","url":"https:\/\/booksandcrannies.co.uk\/products\/susan-glaspell-her-life-and-times-by-linda-ben-zvi-2005","provider":"Books and Crannies Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
