| Summary | "The Cable" by Marion Ames Taggart is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Cicely Adair, a spirited young woman who finds joy in her work as a telephone operator while grappling with social expectations and her relationships with other characters, including the genteel Jeanette Lucas. The book explores themes of personal integrity, friendship, and the complexities of modern life. The opening of the novel introduces us to Cicely as she engages with a group of young boys, revealing her kind-hearted nature and her penchant for bringing joy to their lives through small acts of generosity. The narrative then shifts to Cicely's life at the telephone exchange, where her interactions with other operators, especially her interactions and observations regarding Jeanette Lucas, suggest deeper themes of loyalty and the precarity of connections. As the story unfolds, it hints at Cicely's bold decisions and moral compass, setting the stage for the challenges and adventures she will face. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
