Darkness and Daylight is a novel written by Mary J. Holmes. The story is set in the mid-19th century and revolves around the life of a young woman named Maggie Miller. Maggie is a poor, orphaned girl who lives with her abusive stepfather and his family. Despite her difficult circumstances, Maggie is determined to make a better life for herself.The novel follows Maggie's journey as she moves from her small town to the city of New York in search of work and a better life. Along the way, she meets a wealthy businessman named Mr. Graham, who takes an interest in her and offers her a job as a governess for his young daughter.As Maggie settles into her new life, she begins to uncover the dark secrets of Mr. Graham's past and his complicated relationships with the people in his life. Maggie also finds herself falling in love with Mr. Graham's handsome nephew, Frank.As the story unfolds, Maggie must navigate the complexities of love, class, and social expectations in a rapidly changing world. She also learns to confront the darkness of her own past and find the courage to build a brighter future for herself.Overall, Darkness and Daylight is a compelling tale of love, loss, and redemption set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing America.As they crossed the threshold of the door, he struck his foot against it, and instantly there rang in his ear the words which little Edith had said to him so pityingly, Poor blind man! while he felt again upon his brow the touch of those childish fingers; and this was why the dark, hard look came back. Edith Hastings rose up between him and the regal creature waiting so anxiously his coming, and who, when he came and stood before her, in his helplessness, wept like a child.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
