Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Polly's Business Venture" by Lillian Elizabeth Roy is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces readers to Polly Brewster, a young girl who has returned to America after a summer of adventures in Europe. The narrative focuses on her interactions with family and friends as she navigates friendships, budding romance, and her ambitions in the world of interior decorating. At the start of the novel, Polly is aboard an Atlantic liner with her close friends, eagerly discussing a mysterious wireless message she received. As the group prepares to dock in New York, the narrative unfolds details about their previous adventures and relationships, hinting at Polly's strong character and determination to succeed professionally despite the romantic distractions that swirl around her, particularly from a young man named Tom Latimer. The dynamic among the girls, their playful banter, and the anticipation of returning home all set the stage for the unfolding drama and character growth that follows.
