Summary | "Cinderella Jane" by Marjorie Benton Cooke is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the intertwined lives of Jerry Paxton, a struggling artist, and Jane Judd, a seamstress and caretaker for artists in New York City. As Jerry gets involved in a lavish theatrical production, Jane's quiet yet complex life becomes increasingly relevant, revealing themes of ambition, societal roles, and the pursuit of dreams. The opening of the novel introduces Jerry Paxton, who has just been given an opportunity to direct a theatrical event, the "Pageant of the Prophets." This chance is facilitated through his connection with an influential socialite, Mrs. Abercrombie Brendon. Throughout this initial section, interactions highlight Jerry's ambitious nature and his casual, lighthearted relationship with those around him, including Jane Judd, who silently observes and maintains order among the tumult of the artist community. Meanwhile, Jane, who harbors her own ambitions of writing, juggles her mundane duties with dreams of a more fulfilling life, setting the tone for a deeper exploration of her character and circumstances as the narrative unfolds.
