Alice Adams

New

Alice Adams is a sweet young creature, a charming coquette, not devoid of intelligence and ambition. She lives in a modest house with her parents and dreams of a beautiful life and great love. When "the one and only Arthur... Russell" appears on the horizon, attractive, kind, gallant, the perfect suitor, Alice must do her best to keep up appearances and hide her family's dire financial situation. However, her father, Mr. Adams, holds a certain secret that could elevate their family to the heights of wealth. But at what cost?..
The novel "Alice Adams" won its author, Booth Tarkington, a Pulitzer Prize (his second, the first Pulitzer Tarkington received for the novel "The Magnificent Ambersons"). It is a graceful story of love and disappointment, a tale of how a frivolous girl comes to the understanding of true values and acceptance of the world as it is.
