I am taking the AP English exam tomorrow. I have a good selection of literature to choose from for the free response essay...but I want to have a work of literature which includes a character who experiences prejudice and discrimination, just in case the prompt ends up being related to that concept. Now, I know, I know...A Raisin In the Sun, To Kill a Mockingbird, etc. But I'd rather steer clear of the typical choices about african americans...are there any relatively quick reads that contain a character who experiences prejudice because of her gender, not race? Like Virginia Woolf or Sylvia Plath novels? I'm a speed-reader, but I'd prefer it not to be too obnoxiously long...like I said, this is the last day before the exam.
