As she grows up, Edith faces many challenges and obstacles that stand in the way of her dream. She must navigate the expectations of her family and society, as well as the prejudices and limitations placed on women during this time period. Along the way, she meets a cast of characters who help her on her journey, including a young journalist and a feminist activist.Through Edith's story, Vandegrift explores themes of gender roles, social class, and the pursuit of one's dreams. The novel offers a glimpse into American life during the late 19th century and sheds light on the struggles that women faced during this time.
