Summary "Two Maiden Aunts" by Mary H. Debenham is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the lives of two young sisters, Betty and Angelica Wyndham, who become maiden aunts to their recently orphaned nephew, Godfrey. The narrative captures their shift from childhood to adulthood as they take on the responsibilities of caring for Godfrey after the death of their brother in the West Indies. At the start of the book, we are introduced to the tranquil setting of a country hamlet in autumn. The story kicks off with key characters—Betty and her neighbor, Peter, as well as the lively little girl, Nancy. A sense of loss permeates the early chapters as Betty reveals the tragic news of their brother Bernard's death and the arrival of his son, Godfrey. The initial interactions set the tone for the sisters' new roles as guardians to Godfrey, highlighting both their eagerness and unpreparedness for these responsibilities. As they navigate the challenges of raising their nephew, themes of family, duty, and the innocence of childhood are woven throughout their journey. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
