The story follows the life of Barbara Page, a young woman from a wealthy family who is forced to confront the social and personal challenges of her time.

When she meets a young woman named Nella Rae, who works in a local factory and is part of the burgeoning labor movement, Barbara begins to question her own privileged position and to become interested in social justice issues. As Barbara's friendship with Nella deepens, she becomes more involved in labor activism and begins to clash with her fiancé and her family over her newfound beliefs.

The novel offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in American history, and will appeal to readers interested in social justice, women's issues, and the changing roles of American society in the early 20th century. Overall, The Lilac Girl is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that explores important issues of social justice and personal identity.
