The Wife of Sir Isaac Harman H. G. Wells – Although Sir Isaac Harman didn’t think much of the suffragette movement, his female employees certainly did, and he thought it prescient that he too should do his bit for women’s rights. His wife totally agreed, so he locked her up. However, this gesture was to have far-reaching reverberations as Sir Isaac’s wife becomes the absolute embodiment of women’s independence. ‘The Wife of Sir Isaac Harman’ is a novel by H. G. Wells, first written in 1914.
