The Robber Bride offers a startlingly human look at the underlying reasons and results of the feminist movement of the 1960s. The novel interweaves the stories of its three female protagonists as it pieces together the history of their common enemy, Zenia. Tony, a history professor who specializes in battles, sets out to chronicle Zenia's life story as a series of battles.

Point of View
The Robber Bride is approached from a historical point of view. History professor Tony serves as the overall narrator, although Charis and Roz, in turn, provide their personal accounts of Zenia as well. Tony gathers their three stories together in an attempt to create a historical chronicle of Zenia's life. The key to understanding the point of view in The Robber Bride is Tony's belief that the dead are in the hands of the living.
