Résumé

Résumé : Wired Love tells the story of Nathalie Rogers, a 19th-century telegraph operator who forms a unique, unseen romantic connection with a fellow operator, 'C,' through their daily exchanges of dots and dashes. The narrative blends lighthearted romance with humorous observations of social life and the challenges of long-distance communication. After a disappointing encounter with an impostor, Natty is disillusioned, but the true 'C,' Mr. Stanwood (Clem), is eventually revealed. They reconcile and establish a private telegraph line to continue their 'wired romance,' navigating social challenges and the comedic interference of friends and their nosy landlady, Miss Kling. The story further explores the complex romantic entanglements of their social circle, including Jo's unrequited love for Cyn and Thimby's accidental engagement to Celeste. A dramatic confrontation initiated by Miss Kling's discovery of the secret wire forces Clem to openly declare his love and propose to Natty, resolving their misunderstandings. The novel concludes with Clem and Natty's joyful engagement, while other characters come to terms with their own romantic fates, exploring themes of mistaken identity, unexpressed feelings, fate versus free will, all infused with humor and sentiment.
Biographie : She was the daughter of apothecary George Augusta Thayer (Octr 19, 1824 - December 13, 1863) and Rachel Ella Cheever Thayer (Octr 18, 1823 - May 15, 1907). One sister, Mary Georgie Thayer (Octr 9, 1869 - March 30, 1912), was a school teacher. Thayer eventually became a telegraph operator at the Brunswick Hotel in Boston, Massachusetts, who used her experience on the telegraph as the basis for her book Wired Love, A Romance of Dots and Dashes, which became a bestseller for 10 years.
