She works as a teacher, a saleswoman, and a factory worker, always striving to improve her situation. Along the way, she falls in love with a young man named Ralph, but their relationship is complicated by his family's disapproval and her own insecurities.Maude Baxter is a character-driven novel that explores themes of ambition, love, and social class.
