Project Gutenberg 2007-11-16 Public domain in the USA. 135 Martin, George Madden 1866 1946 The Angel of the Tenement E-text prepared by David Garcia, Tamise Totterdell, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team (http://www.pgdp.net) from page images generously made available by Kentuckiana Digital Library (http://kdl.kyvl.org/) "The Angel of the Tenement" by George Madden Martin is a novel written in the late 19th century. This story navigates the lives of the residents of a tenement, centering particularly on the arrival of a beautifully innocent child known as the "Angel," who brings light and hope into the grim lives of the women living there. The main character that emerges from the beginning is Mary Carew, a bony seamstress with a tough exterior, who unexpectedly finds herself nurturing this child. The opening of the novel introduces a group of women who are gathering in Mary Carew's apartment after discovering an abandoned child—the unnamed Angel—in the tenement complex. As they speculate on her origins, the child asserts that her name is "Angel," which the women wholeheartedly agree is fitting due to her ethereal appearance. While they navigate the complexities surrounding the child's past, Mary finds herself drawn to the child, offering her care and affection despite her own struggles. This heartwarming scenario sets the stage for a tale of community, sacrifice, and the resilience of the human spirit against the backdrop of urban poverty. The dynamic among the women and the mysterious circumstances of the Angel's arrival promise layers of emotional depth as the narrative unfolds. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
