Pubblicato nel 1940, quando la parola "coraggio" era riservata per lo più agli uomini, questo libro fu per Anna Banti il «primo gesto di libertà»: cinque racconti, cinque storie di donne in bilico tra paura e ribellione.

Con un gesto di sfida, affronta il marito padrone che la umilia ogni sera e, sollevando un bicchiere di vino, gli dice in faccia: «Ecco la paura che mi fai: ci bevo sopra».
