Fairly easy to read. E-text prepared by Al Haines "Garthowen: A Story of a Welsh Homestead" by Allen Raine is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set in a picturesque Welsh homestead, focusing on the life and events of a rural community. Central to the narrative is Gethin Owens, a young sailor returning to his childhood home, as well as Morva Lloyd, a girl raised by a guardian after being rescued from a shipwreck, whose lives are intertwined with the family dynamics at Garthowen. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the bustling environment of a seaport town in South Wales, where Gethin Owens interacts with Mrs. Parry, his landlady, showcasing their familiar relationship. Gethin reflects on his troubled past with his father, which led to his departure from home, and the emotional connections he maintains, especially with the young Morva, who was fond of him as a child. The narrative then transitions to the homestead, where Morva is depicted as a lively and hardworking girl, loved by all at Garthowen. The chapter establishes key themes of homecoming, familial bonds, and the pull of nostalgia for both Gethin and the other characters, weaving a rich tapestry of life in this Welsh community.
