Summary: "Miss Marjoribanks" by Mrs. Oliphant is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Lucilla Marjoribanks, a spirited young woman who takes it upon herself to navigate her life and society after the loss of her mother at a young age. With a desire to become a comfort to her father, Lucilla's character embodies determination and a strong sense of self as she sets about reorganizing her household and her role in the community. The opening of the narrative introduces Lucilla as she grapples with the sorrow of losing her mother and her subsequent plans to care for her father, Dr. Marjoribanks. As Lucilla arrives home, she discovers her father is more focused on his medical practice than on the emotional turmoil that surrounds them. Despite her intentions to create a warm and inviting home, Lucilla's initial attempts at providing comfort to her father are met with indifference, leading to humorous and poignant moments that reveal the complexities of familial relationships. This sets the stage for Lucilla's ambition to reshape both her personal life and her small town's social fabric through her charming yet determined character.
