The Noon Mark is a novel written by Mary Stanbery Watts and published in 1920. The story is set in the early 20th century and follows the life of a young woman named Ellen who lives in a small town in the American South. Ellen is a strong-willed and independent woman who is determined to make a life for herself despite the limitations placed on her by society.As the novel unfolds, Ellen finds herself caught up in a web of family drama and secrets. Her father, a wealthy businessman, is involved in a scandal that threatens to ruin the family's reputation. Ellen's mother is emotionally distant and uninterested in her daughter's struggles. Meanwhile, Ellen's younger brother is struggling with his own demons, including alcoholism and a troubled marriage.Despite these challenges, Ellen remains determined to forge her own path in life. She takes a job as a teacher and becomes involved in the local suffrage movement. Along the way, she falls in love with a young man named Jack, but their relationship is complicated by the social norms of the time.As the novel reaches its climax, Ellen must confront the secrets and lies that have been tearing her family apart. She must also make difficult choices about her own future and the kind of life she wants to lead. The Noon Mark is a powerful and poignant novel about family, love, and the struggle for independence in a world that often seeks to constrain and limit women's choices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
