| Summary | "The Madness of May" by Meredith Nicholson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Billy Deering, a man who finds himself entangled in a web of emotional turmoil following his involvement in a theft of bonds and a deep personal crisis. When an enigmatic and eccentric figure named R. Hood appears in Deering's life, he becomes a catalyst for change, leading Deering into a series of unpredictable adventures that challenge his understanding of morality, friendship, and the pursuit of happiness. At the start of the novel, Deering arrives home in a state of distress, burdened by his recent theft from his family's banking firm. Encountering Hood, who claims to be a hobo seeking enjoyment and adventure, Deering is initially baffled by this stranger's carefree attitude and philosophical musings. Hood’s presence prompts Deering to confront his troubles, and after a revealing conversation about his lost bonds and a mysterious girl who has taken his suitcase, the two set off on an unexpected journey. This opening sets the tone for a whimsical exploration of self-discovery against the backdrop of an intriguing blend of romance, humor, and a sense of the absurd.
