| Summary | "Mrs. Radigan: Her Biography, with that of Miss Pearl Veal, and the Memoirs of J. Madison Mudison" by Nelson Lloyd is a fictional narrative written in the early 20th century. The story follows the life of Mrs. Radigan, a prominent social figure, as she navigates the complexities of high society in New York, alongside her sister Pearl Veal, and the experiences of J. Madison Mudison, who appears to document and engage in their adventures. The novel delves into themes of wealth, social aspirations, and the dynamics of class in contemporary society. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to J. Madison Mudison, who reflects on his college ambitions and eventual transition into the real estate business. His life takes a notable turn upon meeting Mrs. Radigan, who walks into his office one sweltering day, sparking his curiosity and leading to various social escapades. Mudison's musings reveal his desires for social status and the allure of Mrs. Radigan's wealth and charm, setting the stage for a greater exploration of their lives and interactions within the elite circles of New York society. Through witty observations and keen social commentary, the opening chapters tease a journey filled with gatherings, parties, and the intricate relationships of their social milieu.
