The main impact/theme/idea this book has left me with is one of sexual oppression and stereotypes, coupled with bigotry and tension in the form of abuse. The book includes such prolonged cruel or unjust treatment or exercise of authority towards the female gender and female character Offglen. This makes such readers upset, as the theme of sexual oppression targets thousands of readers worldwide and due to the systematic oppression of todays society, more people can relate to such ideas presented in the novel.

History proves that what we have been in the past we could be again.
