"Daisy" by Elizabeth Wetherell is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story centers around the experiences of a young girl named Daisy as she navigates life with her governess, Miss Pinshon, and adjusts to living at Magnolia, her family's estate. The narrative explores themes of childhood innocence, the pursuit of education, and the contrast between social classes. At the start of the novel, Daisy reflects on the transition from her bright childhood to the shadows cast by family troubles. After an accident involving her father, she travels to Magnolia with her Aunt Gary and waits for the arrival of her governess, Miss Pinshon. Daisy's early impressions of Magnolia reveal her complex emotions, as she grapples with her feelings of loss and loneliness in what should be a familiar setting. The opening chapters introduce the dynamics between Daisy, her cousin Preston, and Miss Pinshon, setting the stage for Daisy’s exploration of her identity and her interactions with the diverse world of her parents’ plantation, including its servants.
