| Summary | "A Vanished Hand" by Sarah Doudney is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Elsie Kilner, who grapples with personal loss and the search for meaning in her life. Upon discovering a manuscript that belonged to a woman named Meta, who seemed to have suffered greatly for her son Jamie, Elsie feels drawn to find and care for the missing child, embarking on a quest that challenges her understanding of love and connection." "The opening of the novel introduces Elsie Kilner as she reflects on her past, including the loss of her old home and family due to changes instigated by her brother and sister-in-law. She battles feelings of resentment and sorrow, yet finds herself intrigued by a mysterious manuscript that speaks of Meta, a woman who longed for kindness for her son Jamie amidst her own struggles. As Elsie delves into the writings, she experiences a profound sense of empathy and connection, igniting a desire to seek out Jamie and fulfill the legacy of care that Meta could no longer provide. The narrative establishes a rich emotional landscape, prompting readers to consider themes of loss, the quest for belonging, and the transformative power of compassion."
