Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of Looking for Mr. Goodbar?a haunting tale of forbidden love set against the backdrop of the American industrial revolution.
This is the story of Emmeline Mosher, who, before her fourteenth birthday, was sent from her home on a farm in Maine to support her family by working in a cotton mill in Massachusetts.
So begins the sixth novel by the author of Looking for Mr. Goodbar. But nothing Judith Rossner has written can prepare the reader for this haunting love story of a young girl thrust into one of America's early industrial towns, then drawn into a love affair for which she is far from ready.
In Emmeline, Rossner brings us the intensity, grasp of character, and storytelling ability that have distinguished her novels of modern women.
