| Summary | "The Obstacle Race" by Ethel M. Dell is a novel written in the early 20th century. This story features Juliet Moore, who seeks solace and a simpler life after retreating from the hectic pace of London, accompanied by her dog, Columbus. The narrative unfolds as Juliet explores the coastal scenery and develops meaningful connections with the local residents, particularly the enigmatic Robin and his protective brother Dick. The opening of the novel introduces readers to Juliet as she enjoys a moment of tranquility by the sea, reflecting on her past while contemplating her future. After a curious encounter with Robin, a boy marked by his physical deformities and simple demeanor, Juliet finds herself intrigued and empathetic towards him. Their interaction reveals a sense of compassion and connection that hints at deeper themes of sacrifice and familial bonds, particularly as Robin speaks with fervor and loyalty about his brother Dick. As the storyline progresses, it becomes clear that the experiences Juliet faces on the shore will lead her into the heart of community dynamics intertwined with love, hardship, and resilience, setting the stage for her character’s journey ahead.
