What Every Woman Knows is a four-act play written by J. M. Barrie and first performed in London in 1908. What Every Woman Knows is a clever and insightful commentary on the gendered nature of power, ambition, and partnership. Through Maggie Wylie’s character, J. M. Barrie explores how women’s intellectual and emotional contributions to relationships and society often go unseen and unrecognised, even when they are the driving force behind success. The play combines sharp wit, social critique, and emotional depth, making it a valuable work in understanding both the social context of its time and the ongoing conversations about gender roles and recognition today.

J. M. Barrie

Born in Kirriemuir, Scotland, on May 9, 1860, Sir James Matthew Barrie was a chief member of the Kailyard School of novelist in Scotland. He published his first work of fiction, Better Dead, in 1887. This was followed by When a Man’s Single (1888) and My Lady Nicotine (1890). Excessively sentimental, these novels failed to sell. The Little Minister, his next sentimental novel, became immensely popular on its publication in 1891. It was dramatized in 1897. Sentimental Tommy (1896) and Tommy and Grizel (1900), his two ‘Tommy’ novels, were a study of sentimentalism.
