Summary "Object: matrimony" by Montague Glass is a comedic novel written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the themes of love and marriage, weaving a narrative centered around the misadventures and follies that arise in the pursuit of romantic relationships. Through the lens of its characters, it explores societal expectations and the humorous complexities surrounding the institution of marriage. The story revolves around Philip Margolius, a salesman in the cloak and suit trade who finds himself entangled in various romantic predicaments primarily involving the Goldblatt family. Initially facing foreclosure of his properties, Philip's financial woes intersect with his romantic aspirations when he attempts to help his love interest, Birdie Goldblatt, by also seeking a suitor for her less attractive sister, Fannie. Throughout his endeavors, viewers witness comic scenarios involving awkward encounters, misguided introductions, and the eccentricities of the characters, culminating in an unexpected marriage that complicates matters further. Ultimately, the book captures the chaos and delight that come with love and commitment, painting a humorous picture of matrimony in the context of early 20th-century life.
