On the bus or train, people should not talk loudly. If my cough lasted for a long time, I had…

It is without doubt that in books the portrayal of women reflects her status and role in her current society. Thus, the way women and men are portrayed in books can defy or affirm the way they are portrayed in their respective societies.
