Description
A Marrying Man is a novel by G B Stern, first published in London by Nisbet and Company in 1918. Stern's earlier books listed in the front matter include Pantomime, See-Saw, and Grand Chain. The novel is dedicated to Olive Wadsley.
It opens with Kathleen Morrison returning to London unprepared. The house where she lives with her brother and sister in law stands empty and echoing. The furniture is shrouded in linen, and her footsteps thud on uncarpeted stairs. One resentful housemaid in charge tells her the family will not return before Tuesday week. Letters had been written, but Kathleen never reckoned with them. The book is built in four parts of short chapters, a comedy of household and marriage among the comfortable classes.
