| Summary | "East Angels: A Novel" by Constance Fenimore Woolson is a romantic novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in a southern setting, introducing characters such as Evert Winthrop, a visitor from the North, and the Thorne family, consisting of the widow Mrs. Thorne and her daughter Garda. The narrative explores themes of contentment, longing for different climates, and contrasts between northern and southern lives, while establishing the relationships and dynamics among the characters. At the start of the novel, we meet Evert Winthrop, who is seeking a change from the harsh northern winters and has come to East Angels in Florida. Engaging in conversation with Garda Thorne, he learns about her desires to experience the winters of the North, while they both contemplate the beauty and tranquility of the southern climate. Their interactions reveal interesting dynamics, especially as Garda expresses her dreams and aspirations. The stage is set for an exploration of both the physical landscape and the emotional terrain as they encounter various characters, including Mrs. Thorne and their neighbor, Dr. Kirby. The opening portion effectively introduces the characters' backgrounds, setting a tone of introspection and connection to nature. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
