"Bambi" by Marjorie Benton Cooke is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the main character, Francesca Parkhurst, affectionately known as Bambi, and her interactions with her father, Professor Parkhurst, and a young playwright named Jarvis Jocelyn. Bambi is a spirited young woman who challenges social norms and contemplates her future, particularly regarding love, ambition, and her unexpected marriage to Jarvis. The opening of the novel sets the stage for Bambi's dynamic personality as she engages in a spirited debate with her father about the meaning of success and the importance of a potential husband. She is portrayed as witty, independent, and fiercely protective of the unconventional Jarvis, whom she decides to marry out of a sense of duty to support him in his artistic pursuits. Their interaction reveals Bambi's strong will and her desire to forge a life filled with purpose, even as they navigate the complexities of their relationship and societal expectations. The beginning establishes themes of ambition, idealism, and the search for identity against the backdrop of early 20th-century societal norms. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
