Delia: Formerly The Bluebird Of Mulberry Bend is a novel written by Emma Mott Whittemore and published in 1893. The book tells the story of Delia, a young girl who grows up in poverty on the streets of Mulberry Bend, a notorious neighborhood in New York City. Delia's life takes a dramatic turn when she is taken in by a wealthy family, who educate her and help her to become a successful businesswoman. However, Delia's past comes back to haunt her when her former lover, a gang leader, returns to the neighborhood and threatens to expose her secrets. The novel explores themes of poverty, social class, and the struggle for upward mobility in late 19th century New York City.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
