The Choir Visible is a novel written by Mary Jane Mathews Adams and published in 1897. The story is set in a small town in New England and revolves around the lives of two families, the Lanes and the Blakes. The Lanes are a wealthy family who are deeply involved in the church choir, while the Blakes are struggling financially and are not members of the choir.The novel explores themes of social class, religion, and morality. The Lane family is portrayed as being somewhat elitist and judgmental, while the Blake family is shown as being more humble and kind-hearted. The two families become intertwined when the Lanes take in a young orphan girl named Bessie, who develops a close relationship with the Blake family.As the story progresses, tensions rise within the church choir as members begin to question the leadership of the Lanes. The novel ultimately culminates in a dramatic confrontation between the two families, as well as a shocking revelation about the true nature of Bessie's past.Overall, The Choir Visible is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a window into the social and religious mores of turn-of-the-century New England. Adams' writing is both evocative and insightful, making this book a must-read for fans of classic American literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
