The Crowded Street by Winifred Holtby

[william warren]

Adapted by Diana Griffiths

The Crowded Street is the story of a Muriel Hammond, a young girl--and then woman--who seems destined right from the start of the novel to be a spinster. At the age of eleven, she commits a major social faux pas--and her career in a marriage market that considers a woman a spinster by the age of 25 seems to go downhill from there. Although this is a social commentary about the plight of young unmarried (and married) women in early 20th century England, this is also a novel about one young woman's coming of age as she struggles with her own sense of value in the world.
