Summary | "The Vicar's People" by George Manville Fenn is a novel written in the late 19th century. This story unfolds in the picturesque backdrop of Cornwall and focuses on the life of Geoffrey Trethick, a young engineer with a blend of ambition and idealism. As the narrative begins, we are introduced to the Penwynn family, particularly Rhoda Penwynn, who grapples with her father's views on money and social status, setting the stage for themes of class dynamics and personal aspirations. The opening portion introduces us to key characters and the unfolding drama in their lives. Mr. Lionel Penwynn, a banker, engages in a contentious dialogue with his daughter, Rhoda, about her concerns for the local community and her feelings towards a suitor, Mr. Tregenna. Simultaneously, Geoffrey Trethick arrives in Carnac, seeking opportunities amid the ruins of failed mines, which foreshadows his venture into local mining ventures. As Rhoda's conflicting duties towards her father and her own ideals come to the forefront, and as Geoffrey’s determination to succeed in an unwelcoming environment takes shape, the stage is set for a rich exploration of relationships, ambitions, and the pursuit of self-identity within the rigid structures of society.
