Summary: "MRS. DAY'S DAUGHTERS" by Mary E. Mann is a novel that likely reflects social issues during the late 19th century. The story revolves around the Day family, particularly focusing on the lives and challenges faced by the mother, Mrs. Day, and her daughters, as they navigate a changing societal landscape, personal relationships, and the impact of familial struggles, including financial ruin and social status. The opening of the novel presents the aftermath of a New Year's party hosted by Mrs. Day, setting the stage for the family's dynamics.
