Publisher's Synopsis
Tangled Threads: A Tale of Mormonism is a novel written by M.E. Dudley and first published in 1905. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the lives of two women, Rachel and Ruth, who are both members of the Mormon Church. Rachel is a devout follower of the faith and is married to a prominent member of the community, while Ruth is a recent convert who is still struggling to reconcile her faith with her own beliefs and desires. As the story unfolds, the two women's lives become increasingly intertwined as they navigate the complexities of their relationships with their families, their church, and each other. Along the way, they are forced to confront the harsh realities of life in a patriarchal society where women have little agency and are expected to conform to strict gender roles. Tangled Threads offers a nuanced and complex portrayal of the Mormon Church and its members, exploring the tensions between faith, tradition, and personal freedom. It is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
