The Costly Star is a novel written by Margaret Slattery. The book revolves around the life of a young woman named Catherine, who is born into a wealthy family in New York City during the early 1900s. Despite her privileged upbringing, Catherine feels unfulfilled and yearns for something more meaningful in her life.One day, she meets a charismatic and enigmatic man named Paul, who introduces her to the world of art and literature. Catherine is immediately drawn to Paul's charm and intellect, and they soon become inseparable. However, their relationship is complicated by Paul's mysterious past and his association with a group of radical artists and writers.As Catherine becomes more involved with Paul and his circle of friends, she begins to question her own values and beliefs. She is torn between her love for Paul and her loyalty to her family and their conservative way of life. Eventually, Catherine must make a difficult choice that will have far-reaching consequences for her future.The Costly Star is a beautifully written novel that explores themes of love, art, and social change. Slattery's vivid descriptions of New York City during the early 1900s bring the setting to life, and her characters are complex and nuanced. The book is a must-read for anyone who enjoys historical fiction and stories of personal growth and self-discovery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
