"The Bread Line: A Story of a Paper" by Albert Bigelow Paine is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around a group of four friends—two artists and two writers—who embark on an ambitious endeavor to start a publication called the "Whole Family." It explores themes of aspiration, collaboration, and the contrasts between artistic dreams and harsh realities, offering insights into the struggles of bohemian life during a time of economic prosperity. At the start of the book, the narrative unfolds on New Year’s Eve, capturing the optimism and camaraderie among the four protagonists as they indulge in a lavish dinner at a café. As they discuss their dreams and frustrations with the publishing industry, one of the friends, Barrifield, proposes the idea of launching their own paper at a low subscription price, drawing inspiration from an existing successful model. The camaraderie comes to life through their banter and shared ambitions, and as events progress, they find themselves humbled by the social realities around them, exemplified by their encounter with those waiting in the bread line for assistance. This opening chapter establishes the characters' motivations while hinting at the challenges they will face in their entrepreneurial journey.
