Summary | "The Prairie Mother" by Arthur Stringer is a novel written in the early 20th century. This story introduces a prairie woman navigating the challenges of motherhood and marriage while dealing with her husband’s struggles during a time of hardship and economic downturn. It centers around the character of Tabbie, the titular Prairie Mother, who faces the unpredictable hardships of life on the edge of civilization, accompanied by her growing family and the complexities of her husband's ambitions. The opening of the novel presents Tabbie's experience in a hospital as she undergoes the trials of childbirth, where she gives birth to twins—a boy and a girl. The scenes highlight her tumultuous emotions, fluctuating between joy and anxiety over the challenges of motherhood and her husband Duncan's absence. As the story unfolds, Tabbie deals with her new responsibilities as a mother of three, the lonely life on the prairie, and the financial struggles that impact their situation, particularly with the arrival of Duncan's cousin, Lady Alicia, which complicates their lives further. The narrative captures the essence of resilience in the face of adversity, showcasing the difficult yet rewarding journey of a prairie mother striving to create a harmonious family life against all odds.
