Articles on parenting in academia often fall into feminist clichés about balance or having it all; while during the pandemic, much of the discourse illuminated the impossible triad of pandemic parenting and care work, academic productivity, and teaching an increasingly struggling student cohort.

The aristocratic protagonist of Lawrence’s “The Ladybird (1923) contracts a mystical marriage with a Bohemian count. The count’s ideas make him a stand-in for Lawrence. The count predicts, and welcomes, more destruction of the social order than even the Great War brought about.
