Kadınlar Okulu

The School for Women appears as one of the works in which André Gide, who emphasizes the sincerity of the individual and the necessity of knowing himself as the most important criterion of social and individual morality, expresses this view most clearly. The story of a bourgeois family, told from their own perspectives by three different members of a bourgeois family between 1894 and 1936, is almost like the diary of the twenty-year relationship of a man who sees the world as a means of self-existence and a woman who tries to redefine herself through it.
Gide, who masterfully reflects the points where the social and the individual meet, based on a specific time and place, reflects the cultural pulse of his country in the 20th century in this novel. It manages to keep it very accurately between the political and economic tides of the century.
