| Summary | "Home Fires in France" by Dorothy Canfield Fisher is a work of fiction written in the late 1910s. The book explores the experiences of both French and American characters in a French village during World War I, focusing on the impact of the war on everyday life, community, and familial relationships. The narrative particularly emphasizes the resilience of the human spirit amid adversity, presenting characters who grapple with loss and the longing for home. The opening of "Home Fires in France" introduces readers to a rural French village during the war, contrasting the lives of American soldiers with the deeply rooted history and cultural richness of the place. As the soldiers observe the village's storied past, they come to appreciate the continuity of life despite the ravages of war. This section also vividly describes the stark realities of rural existence, including how villagers cope with isolation and the community’s collective spirit during turbulent times. The narrative paints a picture of a close-knit community where daily labor and interdependence define existence, setting the stage for the emotional and physical struggles that will unfold throughout the book.
