| Summary | "Elbow-Room: A Novel Without a Plot" by Max Adeler is a humorous novel written during the late 19th century. This work seeks to entertain through lighthearted tales rather than follow a traditional plot structure. The book is set in a whimsical village, presumably called Millburg, where eccentric characters navigate the quirks of life, relationships, and human nature. The opening of the novel establishes its playful tone by discussing the concept of "elbow-room" as a metaphor for the freedom individuals experience in less crowded environments compared to bustling cities. The narrative then introduces Mr. and Mrs. Fogg, a couple facing comical challenges with their infant, which leads to misunderstandings and a humorous exploration of domestic life. As Mr. Fogg dabbles in mesmerism to soothe their restless baby, a mishap ensues that sets the stage for ensuing absurdity, hinting at the amusing escapades that will unfold throughout this light-hearted tale.
