About this audiobook

Equality is one of the great and lauded aims of a just society. It is rarely achieved. The system is there to be exploited by those with too much money and too many resources. Or maybe just a grudge. Our classic authors including Anton Chekhov, O Henry, Susan Glaspell, Arthur Morrison and others turn their pens to the nature of abuse. It may be gentle or laced with searing pain but always told with the sharpest of pens.
