Synopsis

Open Market is a novel written by Josephine Dodge Daskam Bacon and published in 1915. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Mary Douglas, who is trying to make a living for herself in the business world.

She starts her own business and faces many challenges along the way, including financial setbacks and competition from other companies. Mary's journey is filled with triumphs and setbacks, and she learns valuable lessons about perseverance, hard work, and determination. The novel is a reflection of the changing times and the increasing role of women in the workforce in the early 20th century.

Présentation de l'éditeur

There really should have been lines of sodden paper lanterns swinging in the wet wind, Evelyn thought. How they crowded in all of old New York had turned out to pay the last honors to Cousin Sue. It was like a roll-call of the tribes: Bleecks and Schermers and Jays and Stuyvers, all facing the long train journey back to town or the cross-country motor ride, in the dreary drizzle. The rector adjusted his stole and pitched his sonorous, rich voice. Man, that is born of a woman, hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. A little sympathetic shiver ran through the quiet, crowded space under the striped tent. The ageless beauty of that perfect phrasing, austere as the Greek urns on the lichened marbles that would soon guard Susan Bleeck searthly shell, stirred an echo of eternity in every heart.
