Lodusky

Lodusky is a novel written by Frances Hodgson Burnett, the author of the beloved children's classic The Secret Garden. This book is a departure from her typical genre and follows the story of a young woman named Lodusky, who is forced to leave her home in East Tennessee and move to New York City after the Civil War. Lodusky is a strong-willed and independent woman who is determined to make a life for herself in the big city. She quickly finds work as a seamstress and begins to build a new life for herself. However, she soon discovers that life in New York is not as easy as she thought it would be. She faces many challenges, including poverty, discrimination, and the harsh realities of life in the city.Despite these challenges, Lodusky remains determined to succeed. She makes friends with other women who are also struggling to make a living and begins to build a community around herself. She also falls in love with a kind and generous man named Arthur, who supports her in her endeavors.Throughout the book, Lodusky's strength and resilience are tested, but she never gives up. She becomes a symbol of hope and inspiration to those around her, and her story is a testament to the power of perseverance and determination.Overall, Lodusky is a powerful and inspiring novel that explores themes of resilience, community, and the struggle for survival in a harsh and unforgiving world. It is a must-read for fans of Frances Hodgson Burnett's work and anyone who loves a good story about the triumph of the human spirit.That they would have done each other deadly injury seemed more than probable, but there were cool heads and hands as strong as their own in the room and in a few minutes they had been dragged apart and stood, each held back by the arms, staring at each other and panting. The lank peace-maker in blue jeans who held Dave Humes shook him gently and with amiable toleration of his folly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
