Of trailblazing Polish novelist Eliza Orzeszkowa's many works of social realism, Marta is among the best known, but until now it has not been available in English. Easily a peer of The Awakening and A Doll's House, the novel was well ahead of English literature of its time in attacking the ways the labor market failed women.
