A Modern Madonna is a novel written by Caroline Abbot Stanley and published in 1906. The story follows the life of a young woman named Mary Page, who finds herself in a difficult situation after her husband abandons her and their young child. Mary is left to navigate the challenges of single motherhood in a society that looks down upon women who are not married. Despite the obstacles she faces, Mary remains determined to provide for her child and make a life for herself. She takes on various jobs and eventually becomes a successful businesswoman, but struggles with the guilt and shame that come with being a single mother. Throughout the novel, Mary grapples with her own sense of morality and the expectations of society, ultimately finding a way to reconcile the two. A Modern Madonna explores themes of motherhood, gender roles, and societal expectations in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
