| Summary | "Margaret Capel: A Novel, vol. 1 of 3" by Ellen Wallace is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around the character of Margaret Capel, a young woman recently arrived from school, and her interactions with her uncle, Mr. Grey, her guardian, as well as various figures from the local society. The opening chapters introduce Margaret as she navigates her new life and the dynamics of the relationships around her, offering a blend of social commentary and character exploration typical of its time. The beginning of "Margaret Capel" sets the stage for the intricacies of the protagonist's life. After coming to stay with her uncle, Margaret is greeted with curiosity by Mr. Casement and met with the warmth and affection of Mr. Grey, who is both caring and protective. As she settles into her new environment, we see her thoughtful nature and longing for intellectual pursuits, particularly her interest in history and music. The narrative quickly introduces other key players in her world, including the spirited Gage family, notably Miss Gage and her brother Hubert, who become important figures in Margaret’s journey of growth and self-discovery amidst social expectations. Throughout the exchanges, Margaret's shy yet curious disposition invites both sympathy and intrigue as she steps into a society filled with charm and complexity.
