Summary "Thirty" by Howard Vincent O'Brien is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces readers to the Wynrod siblings, Roger and Judith, who grapple with their complex family dynamics, financial troubles, and personal growth amid a backdrop of wealth and societal expectations. The narrative likely explores themes of responsibility, economic disparity, and the quest for personal identity. At the start of the book, Roger Wynrod is feeling the weight of his gambling losses, which lead him to rely on his sister Judith for financial support. Their breakfast table is marked by an uneasy atmosphere as Judith struggles with her role as Roger's guardian due to their father's will. The tension escalates when they encounter Brent Good, a reporter who confronts Judith about her responsibilities as a stockholder in the mines where a tragic accident has occurred. This encounter prompts Judith to reflect on her wealth and its implications, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of ethical and moral dilemmas in their lives. The opening portion thus establishes key character relationships and introduces the central conflicts that will drive the narrative. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
