Publisher's Synopsis

Patty At Home by Carolyn Wells is a novel that tells the story of Patty Fairfield, a young woman who returns home after spending several years abroad. As she settles back into her old life, she finds herself faced with a series of challenges and obstacles that force her to confront her own beliefs and values.Throughout the novel, Patty must navigate the complexities of family relationships, romantic entanglements, and social expectations. Along the way, she discovers new strengths and abilities, and learns to rely on her own intuition and judgment.The book is set in the early 20th century and provides a vivid portrait of life during that time period. It explores themes of gender roles, class differences, and the changing social landscape of America.Overall, Patty At Home is a compelling and insightful novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of a young woman coming of age in a rapidly changing society.Mrs. St. Clair, who was Patty's aunt only by marriage, was a very fashionable woman of a pretty, but somewhat artificial, type. She liked young people, and had spared no pains to make Patty's visit to her a happy one. But it was quite evident that she expected Patty to return her hospitality in kind, and she had been at Boxley Hall but a few hours before she began to inquire what plans Patty had made for her entertainment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
