| Summary | "Septimus" by William John Locke is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the character Zora Middlemist, a young woman who recently lost her husband and is determined to embrace her newfound freedom and explore the world beyond her small, dull village of Nunsmere. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Zora during a visit from the Literary Man from London. Zora strongly rejects the notion of being a "faded life" and expresses her frustration with the constraints of her rural existence. She is eager to escape, vowing to live life to the fullest and leave behind the memories that haunt her. As her mother expresses concern for her daughter's happiness, Zora's rebellious spirit emerges, leading her to proclaim her intention to travel and experience everything the world has to offer. She highlights a desire to break free from being defined by her relationships with men, asserting her independence and longing for adventure. This sets the stage for her journey into the vibrant life she seeks, marking the beginning of Zora's quest for self-discovery and fulfillment. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
