Summary "Stingaree" by E. W. Hornung is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in the backdrop of Australia, featuring the intriguing character of Stingaree, a bushranger and outlaw, whose escapades are often intertwined with themes of music and romance. The female protagonist, Hilda Bouverie, is a talented singer who finds herself caught up in the adventurous and dangerous world represented by Stingaree. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Hilda Bouverie, who is singing in isolation when a mysterious gentleman, later revealed as a man associated with the bushranger, enters. Their interaction highlights her artistic aspirations and her struggles with societal expectations, particularly not being allowed to sing during a charity concert. This sets the stage for a complex intertwining of their lives, as the story hints at the dangers posed by Stingaree, who is also a charismatic and noble figure. As events unfold, we see Hilda's capacity for bravery juxtaposed against the backdrop of the outlaw's life, leading to a mix of romantic and thrilling elements that promise an engaging tale.
