Having really enjoyed Purman's take on women's rights in 1956 Australia in "A woman's work", I was ready to be angered again by what our predecessors had to put up with.  This was superb - I didn't know there was actually a LAW against married women working in that era.  Long after it was abolished in the UK.  I have been told 50s Australia was ultra-conservative.  This fun story shows just how much.  Some fab characters, who I hazard can only exist with the benefit of looking through a 2020s lens.
