| Summary | "Doc. Gordon" by Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around James Elliot, a young medical graduate, who embarks on a journey to become an assistant to the local physician in Alton, Doctor Thomas Gordon. The narrative introduces themes of ambition, youthful exuberance, and the complexities of human relationships, especially through the lens of James's interactions with the enigmatic figures in his new environment. The opening of the novel follows James as he walks to Alton, filled with optimism and excitement about starting his medical career. Along the way, he encounters various characters, including a workingman and a young woman named Clemency, who elicits both intrigue and protectiveness from him. As he arrives in Alton and meets Doctor Gordon, a mix of joviality and melancholy pervades their conversations, hinting at deeper issues surrounding the doctor’s family, particularly his sister, Mrs. Ewing, whose health appears to be a source of concern. James quickly becomes entangled in the complex dynamics of the Gordon household, characterized by secrets and unspoken struggles, particularly regarding Mrs. Ewing's mysterious ailment and Clemency's own predicament of being sheltered from the outside world.
