| Summary | "Cape of Storms: A Novel" by Percival Pollard is a fictional work likely written in the late 19th century. The narrative begins in a small village called Lincolnville, where young Richard "Dick" Lancaster prepares to leave for a new life in the city. The story focuses on themes of ambition, love, and the contrast between the innocence of rural life and the complexities of urban existence. The opening portion introduces us to Dick, a talented young artist fueled by dreams of success and his affection for Dorothy Ware, the girl he hopes to marry. As he prepares to leave Lincolnville, we learn about his aspirations and reflections on life, interspersed with his conversations with friends who express concern for his future. The prologue sets up a poignant moment in a Sunday school class, foreshadowing the challenges and emotional turmoil Dick may face as he navigates his ambition in the bustling world of the city, where he eventually secures a position as an illustrator for a newspaper, the "Weekly Torch." The beginning establishes a rich backdrop for a story filled with youthful dreams and the inevitable storms of life. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
