Summary: "The Woman Who Dared" by Epes Sargent is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around the character Linda, a girl growing up in a loving household deeply shaped by the values of her father, Percival, and her mother, Mary. The story likely explores themes of love, personal agency, and the struggles faced by women in a patriarchal society while documenting Linda's coming-of-age journey. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the Percival family, who maintain a quiet life of modest means and significant love for their only daughter, Linda. Percival, now in his sixties, is devoted to his daughter's education and moral development, boasting a rich inner life despite the external hardships they've faced. The opening also hints at a painful backstory of loss, as Linda's parents mourn their previous children, bringing a blend of joy and sorrow to their current family dynamic. As the first chapter unfolds, Percival reflects on his aspirations for Linda and subtly raises questions about her future choices in a society that often limits women's options.
