The eights / Joanna Miller.

Summary:

"Oxford, 1920. For the first time in its 1,000-year history, Oxford University officially admits female students. Burning with dreams of equality, four young women move into neighboring rooms in Corridor 8. Beatrice, Dora, Marianne, and Otto -- collectively known as The Eights -- come from all walks of life, each driven by their own motives, each holding tight to their secrets -- and are thrown into an unlikely, unshakeable friendship. Among the historic spires, and in the long shadow of the Great War, the four women must navigate and support one another in a turbulent world in which misogyny is rife, influenza is still a threat, and the dead do not always remain dead ..."-- Provided by publisher.
