description American authoress Susan Glaspell's 'Fidelity' portrays the struggle of a woman to discover herself amidst a world characterized by images prescribed by society with the help of her female friends. Susan Glaspell's women are fighters who strive for their individuality. Glaspell was a popular writer until the mid-1930s when Americanists sought to masculinize literature. Her critics extolled her dramatic works as experimental, but downgraded her literary efforts as merely filling a feminine niche.
