Boston Neighbours In Town and Out

Boston Neighbors in Town and Out by Agnes Blake Poor is about a small club of young women and new mothers who come together to discuss their lives and keep one another company. Excerpt: "I should be glad to tell a story if I only knew one, but I don't. Some people say that one experience is as interesting as another and that any real life is worth hearing about, but I think it must make some little difference who the person is. But if I really must tell one, and since you all have told yours, and such nice ones and anything is better than nothing when we are kept in all the morning by pouring rain, with nothing to do, because we came only for a week, and did not expect it to rain, I will try and tell you about our Tolstoi Club, because that was rather like a story—at least it might have been like one if things had turned out a little differently."
