A witty college girl, mischievous adventures, and friendships that last a lifetime. Patty's charm and humor light up her college life. But will her carefree spirit land her in trouble?
When Patty Went to College is Jean Webster's delightful debut novel, following the charming and spirited Patty Wyatt through her senior year at an all-women's college. Known for her wit and lighthearted pranks, Patty navigates the ups and downs of academic life, friendships, and the search for purpose. Webster's novel captures the essence of college life and the joys of independence, making it a timeless tale of youth and self-discovery.
Alice Jane Chandler Webster (1876-1916) was an American writer who used the pseudonym Jean Webster, best known for Daddy-Long-Legs and Dear Enemy. Her books feature lively and likeable young female protagonists who come of age intellectually, morally, and socially, but with enough humor, snappy dialogue, and gently biting social commentary to make her books palatable and enjoyable to contemporary readers. When Patty Went to College is Webster's first novel, published in 1903, a humorous look at life in an all-girls college at the turn of the 20th century. [Webster is an alumna of Vassar College.]
