The other main characters Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist both were raised in 1950’s conservative American families, where affection was hidden away as if it were a sin.

The Farmer’s Bride by Charlotte Mew. The poet presents the cruel society through the structure of the ballad. This is depicted in the end stopped lines like ‘the shut of a winter’s day.’ The lack of enjambment crystallises the trapped situation the woman faces in this oppressive society.
