Sarah Orne Jewett, in her work The Country of the Pointed Firs written in 1896, portrays the conflicts and changes in American women's status as America turned from domestic economy of the nineteenth century to the consumer capitalism of the twentieth century. Through the narrator protagonist, Jewett explores a woman writer who tries to make the transition between traditional and modern women's status. Jewett posits that the narrator's status as a writer both distances her from the traditional social network of women's sphere and also provides the means she can rediscover the value of women's sphere Despite the precarious relationship with the small traditional community the narrator visits and the distance she has to keep from that community to establish her role as a writer, her writing becomes a form of communication. Through the course of the novel, the narrator as a women writer recognizes that her identity as a writer isolated her from the women's world which originally nourished her, and she also comes to an awareness that her identity as a writer presents her the consolation of a professional role in the modern world.
