I remember the strong, intense feelings of childhood towards her family members, how she felt much closer to her father and that her mom was harsh or didn't like her, and that her mother preferred her sister. I remember much feeling the same about my mom, and the uneasy guilt of preferring the fun, sympathetic parent to the harsh, unreasonable one as a child.

The mother seems often portrayed as saintly and grim, but harsh as well IMO...with the puritan strictures around fun things and pretty intense Sabbath rules.

Another book I remember strong, troubled feelings about, Caddie Woodlawn and being able to do outdoors things, before having to "grow up and be a woman." It really troubled me, the harsh strictures of womanhood she was supposed to grow into. No more nature or freedom...
