Publisher's Synopsis
Phoebe and Ernest is a novel written by Inez Haynes Gilmore in 1912. The story follows the lives of two young people, Phoebe and Ernest, who come from very different backgrounds. Phoebe is a wealthy heiress who has everything she could ever want, while Ernest is a poor artist struggling to make ends meet. Despite their differences, the two fall in love and must navigate the challenges that come with their disparate social statuses. Along the way, they encounter a cast of colorful characters, including Phoebe's overbearing father and Ernest's bohemian friends. The novel explores themes of class, love, and the pursuit of happiness, and offers a glimpse into early 20th century American society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
