The Squirrel-Cage (1912)
By Dorothy Canfield [Dorothy Canfield Fisher] (1879–1958)

This novel does not appear to feature any actual squirrels.
It seems to have similarities to Ibsen’s “The Doll’s House,” and shows how a woman is trapped by her family’s aspirations and by the expectations of a consumer society.
