Edición en Inglés
When seventeen-year-old Abigail Taylor turns down the proposal of her suitor, Tom Dawkins, her family feels that she must go out to make her own way in the world. So, a position as a servant is secured for her in the home of Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Dearest David is the story of the few months in the year 1841 during which Abigail Falls experiences life in the Emerson household at the peak of both its intellectual and emotional intensity. She falls in love with the free-spirited but emotionally cool Henry David Thoreau. She discovers the power of the prophetic but frightening Lidian Emerson, and she meets the charismatic radical Margaret Fuller. She also learns to respect but also to recognize the weaknesses of Emerson himself.
Abigail is eventually forced to leave her employment in the Emerson household under circumstances that are both surprising and disturbing.
