Produced by Suzanne Shell, Mary Meehan and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Susan Clegg and Her Neighbors' Affairs" by Anne Warner is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Susan Clegg, a spirited and practical woman, as she navigates the complexities of friendship, community dynamics, and romantic entanglements in her small town. The opening sets the stage for a humorous and insightful exploration of the interpersonal relationships among neighbors, particularly as Susan prepares to relay important news to her friend, Mrs. Lathrop. At the start of the novel, Susan Clegg is bustling about her kitchen, preparing her favorite meal, while contemplating a significant conversation she needs to have with Mrs. Lathrop. The narrative captures Susan’s internal dialogue as she grapples with her role in sharing an unexpected proposal from Deacon White with her friend. The scene illuminates both the warmth and the awkwardness of close friendships, as well as the comedic tension surrounding Susan’s efforts to break the news in a sensitive manner. The opening effectively introduces the reader to Susan's character—fiercely loyal, a bit nosy, and directly humorous—as she reflects on the impact of love and marriage in her life and her community.
