The Heart of Rachael (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

This 1916 bestseller is set in a wealthy enclave of Long Island, New York. Rachael, the depressed wife of a rich and fashionable man, finds a promise of happiness after a period of suffering and doubt, but must do the unthinkable—divorce and remarry. However, the troubles do not end there, in the book the New York Times praised as Norris's "best and most careful work."
