The Sheltered Life is perhaps Glasgow’s most direct attack upon that Southern cult of manners. Set in the early 20th century - beginning in 1906, and continuing to the onset of the First World War in 1914 - this novel takes as its subject the changing fortunes of two families, the Archbalds and the Birdsongs, who live in a rapidly industrializing area on a once-select street of Queenborough, Virginia (Glasgow’s fictionalized Richmond).
