Many people have a public face and one they keep private. This is the case for seventeen-year-old Pearl. However, hers is quite complicated. While maintaining a public face as an advocate for women's right to vote, she must do so privately to avoid the wrath of her father, Judge McNeece. He is a man with stern indictments for any woman involved in the suffrage movement. Now, imagine Pearl's difficulty when another character notices the fact that she is more than who she says she is. Will this character ever learn who she truly is? How will Judge McNeece react when his own daughter stands before him in court? What will she tell him? Railroad Avenues is a history's tale of the discrimination, stigma, and determination that women faced during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries as they fought for suffrage rights in America. This is no ordinary novel, as it is spoken directly through the characters' dialogue and constructed with word-ending rhymes.
