Produktbeschreibung
Linda Condon by Joseph Hergesheimer, written in the early 20th century, is a novel that explores the complexities of personal identity, familial relationships, and social expectations. The story centers on Linda Condon, a serious and introspective young woman, whose quiet demeanor contrasts sharply with the more flamboyant, socially ambitious personality of her mother, Mrs. Condon. The relationship between mother and daughter forms the core of the narrative, with Linda admiring her mother's vivacity and charm, even as she is increasingly aware of the superficiality and emotional complexities that define her mother's behavior. This tension between Linda's internal world and her mother's external focus on relationships and status serves as a foundation for the novel's exploration of identity and societal expectations. The novel examines the roles that social appearances, personal desires, and family dynamics play in shaping an individual's sense of self. Through Linda's evolving understanding of her mother's choices and the broader social context in which they live, Hergesheimer crafts a narrative that delves into themes of personal growth, emotional depth, and the complex interplay between individuality and societal pressure.

Autorenporträt
Joseph Hergesheimer was an American author who lived from February 15, 1880, to April 25, 1954. He was best known for writing realistic stories about the hedonistic lives of the rich. It was February 15, 1880, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, that Hergesheimer was born. He went to a Quaker school for school and then graduated from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. The Lay Anthony, Hergesheimer's first book, came out in 1914. The next book, Three Black Pennys, came out in 1917. It was a fictional account of the lives of three generations of Pennsylvania ironmasters. It established the author's way of writing about upper-class people using what he called "aestheticism," a style of flowery description. Three Black Pennies was also the first American book that Alfred A. Knopf, a new publishing house, put out. The books Java Head (1919), Linda Condon (1919), and Balisand (1924) by Hergesheimer also got good reviews.
