| Summary | "Fate Knocks at the Door: A Novel" by Will Levington Comfort is a work of fiction written during the early 20th century. The novel follows the life of Andrew Bedient, a young man who experiences profound emotional and physical transformations as he navigates through different cultures and personal relationships in Asia and beyond. Central to the narrative is the theme of fate and destiny, as Bedient encounters both the turmoil of life at sea and the complexities of love and friendship. The opening of the novel introduces Andrew Bedient as he serves as a cook on the ship "Truxton", which is becalmed in the treacherous waters of the China Sea. The narrative vividly portrays Bedient's interactions with Captain Carreras, a fragile yet kind-hearted gentleman who profoundly impacts his life. As a powerful typhoon strikes, forcing both men into a fight for survival, Bedient's character begins to emerge through his courage and quick thinking. Through this intense incident, the foundation is laid for Bedient's journey of self-discovery and the exploration of deep emotional connections, especially as he ventures into the world after parting from Carreras. This initial chapter sets the stage for further developments in Bedient's life, hinting at themes of resilience, friendship, and the search for purpose amidst chaos.
