[LM_NET] OT: Need your literary knowledge

[Sharon Hamer <shamer@SAUGUS.K12.MA.US>]

I have a friend who is writing a dissertation and needs a few titles  
of American  literature, written after 1850 but before about 1925 that  
feature a hen-pecked husband as a main character. The man should be  
relatively powerless and pushed around by  his wife, kids, parents,  
etc. The character can be serious or humorous. The plot does not have  
to resolve this issue. They can be from novels, plays, short stories.  
They have to be American, not British or other nationalities. Thanks  
in advance!!
