Opal is a novel written by Bessie Ray Hoover and published in 1910. The story is set in a small town in Indiana and follows the life of the titular character, Opal, from childhood to adulthood. Opal is a young girl who is raised by her grandparents after her mother dies. She is a bright and curious child who loves to learn, but she struggles to fit in with the other children in her community. As she grows older, Opal becomes increasingly aware of the social and economic inequalities that exist in her town, and she becomes determined to make a difference. With the help of her grandfather, who is a lawyer, Opal begins to fight for the rights of workers and the poor. Along the way, she falls in love with a young man named Tom, who shares her passion for social justice. However, their relationship is threatened by the prejudices and expectations of their families and society. Opal must navigate these challenges while continuing to fight for what she believes is right. The novel explores themes of social justice, love, and the struggle for self-discovery in a changing world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
