| Summary | "Kit Musgrave's Luck" by Harold Bindloss is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the journey of Kit Musgrave, a young clerk from Liverpool, who embarks on an adventure to the Canary Islands and West Africa for work. As he navigates the complexities of his new environment and the characters he meets, Kit grapples with his aspirations for success, the challenges of adapting to a different culture, and his feelings for a girl back home. The opening of the novel paints a vivid picture of Kit's arrival in Las Palmas, revealing his initial disappointment with the perceived romanticism of the place versus the reality of its industrial backdrop. As Kit reflects on his life choices, including leaving behind his job and the girl he likes, Betty, his sense of duty and ambition propels him forward. The narrative introduces us to various characters who will shape his experiences, including Don Arturo and the spirited Spanish crew of the ship he will join. This beginning sets up a tale of personal growth, cultural clashes, and the unpredictability of fortune that will likely unfold throughout Kit's adventures in the new world he is entering.
