About this book

Viña Delmar follows a young working couple in New York as attraction develops into marriage and the prospect of parenthood. Dot and Eddie must negotiate limited money, uncertainty and the expectations they bring to a life together, while their awkward conversations often conceal what matters most to them.

The novel moves between public amusements, work and domestic life, observing how ordinary pressures shape the couple’s relationship. This complete early Grosset & Dunlap edition preserves Delmar’s narrative and the original publication notices identifying the novel’s first appearance in April 1928.
