| Summary | "When a Man's Single: A Tale of Literary Life" by J. M. Barrie is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Rob Angus, a young saw-miller who becomes a reporter in Silchester after a personal tragedy that leaves him 'single.' The narrative explores themes of ambition, independence, and the literary life as Rob navigates the challenges of his new career while dealing with his past and caring for a child he has raised. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to Davy Dundas, a four-year-old girl who wanders away from her guardians in the town of Thrums. The community buzzes with concern as she goes missing, sparking a search that highlights the interconnectedness of the townsfolk. Through the lens of everyday life in Thrums, Barrie paints a picture of a close-knit community reacting to the crisis, all while hinting at Rob’s internal struggle with grief and responsibility—elements that set the stage for his eventual move to the bustling literary world of Silchester.
