Bachelor advertises for a cook in a city
A bachelor in a fine street advertised for a cook. Twenty five young women and ten old men answered. One young woman, later identified as the household helper, proved willing yet wary as the master evaluated her. The tale follows the cook’s strange assignment, wages, and a long, morally loaded arc ending with concern over need and care.
