| Summary | "The Making of Mona" by Mabel Quiller-Couch is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around the young protagonist, Mona, who is navigating her transition from living with her grandmother to moving in with her father and stepmother. The book explores themes of childhood innocence, responsibility, and the complexities of family dynamics. The opening of the story presents a slice of Mona's life as she grapples with her day-to-day responsibilities while being enveloped in her imaginative world, particularly through her love for reading. We witness her carefree nature, which comes with the realization of having a careless tendency to forget household tasks, such as keeping the kettle boiling for her fatigued grandmother. As the narrative unfolds, we see the budding tension between Mona's whimsical desires and the weight of her responsibilities, especially when a letter from her father beckons her back home. This chapter sets the stage for her internal conflicts, highlighting her struggle with self-awareness and the shifts in her life that resonate with many coming-of-age tales.
