| Summary | "The Readjustment" by Will Irwin is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the lives of the Tiffany family and their interactions with the local ranching community, focusing particularly on Eleanor Gray, the niece of Judge Tiffany. As the narrative unfolds, themes of personal ambition, social expectations, and the evolving dynamics of rural life in California come into play, especially as Eleanor navigates her relationships and the responsibilities that come with her upbringing. The opening of the novel introduces us to Judge Tiffany and his wife as they stroll through their fruit orchard, highlighting the domestic and pastoral setting of their lives. We meet Eleanor, freshly returned from the city, who is determined to manage her father's ranch while grappling with her ambitions and familial obligations. The dynamics within the Tiffany household are further complicated by the arrival of Bertram Chester, a summer worker and college student, who sparks an immediate yet awkward connection with Eleanor. As the narrative establishes these relationships, it hints at broader societal themes and character developments that are likely to unfold throughout the book.
