Patty's Success
Patty's Success, published in 1910, belongs to Carolyn Wells's long series about Patty Fairfield, a lively New York girl. Home from a year in Europe, Patty plunges into Christmas parties, skating and dances with her friends Elise, Roger and Kenneth, but she also wants to do something worthwhile. When her father agrees to back a project of hers on condition that she earn part of the money herself, Patty sets out with complete confidence to make her way, and discovers that earning money is harder than she imagined. The story is light, warm and full of period detail about clothes, shops and social life in New York before the First World War. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
