"Dear Enemy" by Jean Webster is a novel published in 1915 as the sequel to "Daddy-Long-Legs." Told through letters, it follows Sallie McBride as she transforms from a frivolous socialite into the superintendent of an orphanage. She navigates daily challenges, reforms outdated practices, and develops complicated relationships with two very different men—a wealthy politician and the orphanage's embittered Scottish doctor. The story explores women's work, orphan care, and the choices that shape a meaningful life. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
