Please, do find something like that in the English literature and not so pessimistic and depressing or childish so that we all can have a real good time reading and discussing.

I know you weren't talking to me, but your comment has prompted me to nominate
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Bronte
From Manybooks:
The story of a woman who leaves her abusive, dissolute husband, and who must then support herself and her young son. By challenging the prevailing morals of the time the novel caused a critic to pronounce it ''utterly unfit to be put into the hands of girls''. It is considered to be one of the first feminist novels.
