| Summary | "What Answer?" by Anna E. Dickinson is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in a bustling New York City, showcasing the lives of its characters against the backdrop of social issues, especially focusing on themes of ambition, love, and race. The main character appears to be William Surrey, a charming young man grappling with societal expectations and his burgeoning interest in a mysterious girl. The opening of the novel introduces a lively scene on Fifth Avenue, filled with the city's elite, as William Surrey muses over the luxurious yet superficial lifestyle. He is soon captivated by a young girl he spots from a window, prompting him to chase after her. This initial pursuit is filled with youthful optimism and charm while contrasting sharply with an impending conflict regarding race within his father's foundry, particularly concerning a talented black employee named Franklin. The narrative sets the stage for an exploration of personal dilemmas amid broader societal issues as William faces choices that may define his character and affect those around him.
