Summary: "An Oregon Girl: A Tale of American Life in the New West" by Alfred Ernest Rice is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in Portland, Oregon, and focuses on the lives of several characters, including Virginia Thorpe, who is central to a love triangle involving Joe Corway and Hazel Brooke. The plot delves into themes of love, deceit, and societal expectations in the context of American life in the New West. The opening of the novel introduces a cast of characters and sets the stage for the unfolding drama. It begins with the backdrop of a failed investment company and the subsequent struggles faced by two middle-aged bachelors, Jack Shore and Philip Rutley, as they devise a scheme to regain social standing. The narrative then shifts to Virginia Thorpe, who, having returned from the farm, is filled with joy at the prospect of reuniting with her love, Joe Corway. Yet, soon darkness looms as Virginia overhears a conversation implying Corway's deceit, causing turmoil in her heart. The tensions heighten as relationships and reputations intertwine, foreshadowing conflicts driven by jealousy and betrayal. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
