Summary | "Pray You, Sir, Whose Daughter?" by Helen H. Gardener is a novel written in the late 19th century. This poignant work explores themes of poverty, social class, and the challenges faced by women in a patriarchal society. The story revolves around the character Gertrude Foster and her evolving understanding of love, self-reliance, and the societal expectations imposed on women. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to Mrs. Foster, who expresses disdain for the uncleanliness often associated with poverty, demonstrating her lack of empathy towards the less fortunate. This conversation sets the stage for Gertrude’s internal struggle between her sheltered life and her growing awareness of the harsher realities many people face. John Martin, a family friend, challenges the Fosters' views, highlighting the distance between their privileged existence and the grim conditions of poorer classes. As the narrative unfolds, Gertrude starts to grapple with her ideas about love, self-worth, and the societal constructs that define womanhood, hinting at her impending journey towards self-discovery and activism.
