Their Heart's Desire is a novel written by Francis Foster Perry and published in 1909. The story is set in early 20th century America and follows the lives of two young women, Ruth and Marion, who come from very different backgrounds. Ruth is the daughter of a wealthy businessman and has grown up in luxury, while Marion is the daughter of a poor farmer and has had to work hard her whole life.Despite their differences, Ruth and Marion become close friends and confidantes. They both have dreams and aspirations for their futures, but they also face challenges and obstacles along the way. Ruth struggles with her privileged upbringing and the expectations placed upon her by her family, while Marion must navigate the difficulties of living in poverty and dealing with the prejudices of others.As the two women grow older, they both fall in love with men who are not approved of by their families. Ruth falls for a man who is not wealthy enough for her parents' liking, while Marion falls for a man who is of a different race. The novel explores the themes of love, friendship, class, and race, and the challenges that individuals face when trying to pursue their heart's desires.Overall, Their Heart's Desire is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a glimpse into the social and cultural norms of early 20th century America. It is a timeless story that still resonates with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
