| Summary | "Similia similibus curantur" by G. J. Whyte-Melville is a novel written during the late 19th century. The story opens with an atmospheric scene on a stormy night in Calais, where a distraught young man named Mr. Bruce wanders the sands, consumed with grief and worry for his beloved, Nina, who is in a precarious condition after childbirth. The narrative captures his inner turmoil and desperation, setting the stage for a tale that delves into love, societal expectations, and the resulting complications from their choices. The beginning of the novel paints a vivid picture of Mr. Bruce's emotional state as he reflects on his relationship with Nina, marked by youthful passion and the challenges they face regarding their future. The tension escalates as he waits anxiously for news of Nina’s wellbeing and the aftermath of her delivery. As he grapples with fears of losing her, the arrival of a French doctor provides a glimmer of hope, informing him of Nina's recovery. This portion of the book effectively introduces the main characters and their conflicting emotions, while foreshadowing the complications that will arise from their decisions against societal norms.
