The Title Market by Emily Post is a novel that delves into the social dynamics and marriage customs of the early 20th century. The story follows a young American woman who navigates the world of European aristocracy and wealthy American families, where marriages are often arranged more for status than for love. Through sharp social commentary, Post examines the allure and pitfalls of pursuing titles and wealth over genuine human connection. The novel offers a critical look at societal expectations and the sacrifices made in the name of social ambition.
