| Summary | "Norston's Rest" by Ann S. Stephens is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the Hurst family, particularly Sir Noel Hurst and his relationship with his ward, Lady Rose, amidst a backdrop of English tradition and class dynamics. As various characters navigate through love, societal expectations, and personal struggles, the narrative unfolds significant themes of romance and class conflict. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to "Norston's Rest," a grand estate owned by the Hurst family, filled with historical significance. The opening chapter depicts a festive atmosphere as the household prepares for the first day of the hunt, highlighting the elegance of the guests and the anticipation surrounding Lady Rose's arrival. The narrative introduces a young man named Walton Hurst, who seems to hold a significant role in the unfolding drama, as well as Richard Storms, a farmer’s son eager to align himself with higher social standing while becoming enamored with a local girl named Judith. The interplay of emotions, expectations, and social class sets the stage for a rich exploration of relationships and ambitions in the chapters to come. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
