| Summary | "Good References" by E. J. Rath is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Mary Wayne, a young woman navigating employment challenges, as she seeks a position with the prestigious Brain Workers' Exchange but finds herself lacking the necessary references. The opening chapters introduce her initial struggles, her chance encounter with another job seeker, Nell Norcross, and the unexpected twists that arise as Mary takes on the identity of Nell. The narrative explores themes of deception, ambition, and the societal pressures surrounding employment and social standing. At the start of the book, Mary enters the Brain Workers' Exchange with hope but quickly faces rejection due to her lack of references. She's filled with despair but then meets Nell Norcross, who has the references Mary desperately needs for a more promising position. As fate intervenes, Mary opts to take on Nell's identity to secure the job as a social secretary for Bill Marshall, Aunt Caroline’s nephew. This decision sets up a tangled web of deception as Mary struggles to uphold the persona of someone she is not, all while dealing with the complications of a sick friend and her growing concern for Bill's future in society. The opening serves as a foundation for Mary’s journey, highlighting her determination and resourcefulness in a trying situation. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
