Author Donnell, Annie Hamilton, 1862-1943
Title Gloria and Treeless Street
Credits Produced by Joel Erickson, David Widger and PG Distributed Proofreaders
Summary "Gloria and Treeless Street" by Annie Hamilton Donnell is a novel written in the early 20th century, specifically around 1910. The story revolves around Gloria, a sheltered and wealthy young girl, who becomes increasingly aware of the harsh realities of life in a nearby impoverished area known as Treeless Street. Through her interactions with the District Nurse, Mary Winship, and children like Dinney from that district, Gloria grapples with issues of social inequality and her desire to make a difference. In the novel, Gloria's journey of self-discovery begins as she befriends Mary Winship, the District Nurse, and learns about the struggles of families living in poverty. As Gloria explores Treeless Street, she witnesses the sorrow and hardship faced by its residents, particularly the effects of neglect on their living conditions. Moved by a sense of empathy and responsibility, Gloria decides to use her wealth to improve the circumstances of those in need, envisioning a new model tenement to replace the dilapidated ones. The story culminates in Gloria's plan to support and uplift her new friends, blending themes of compassion, social justice, and personal growth. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
