The Charwoman's Daughter is a novel written by James Stephens and published in 1917. The story is set in Dublin, Ireland, and follows the life of Mary Makebelieve, the daughter of a charwoman. Mary is a dreamer and spends much of her time lost in her own imagination, creating stories and characters in her mind. Despite her poverty and difficult upbringing, Mary is a bright and cheerful girl who finds joy in the smallest things. As she grows older, Mary's imagination leads her to pursue a career in the theatre, and she becomes a successful actress. However, her success is short-lived, as she falls in love with a wealthy man who does not reciprocate her feelings.
