| Summary | "Aunt Jane" by Jennette Lee is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Aunt Jane Holbrook, a nurturing and sensible matron at the Berkeley House of Mercy, a hospital where her expertise and caring nature are respected by both patients and staff. As she tends to patients, Aunt Jane demonstrates a remarkable blend of warmth, practical wisdom, and humor, creating an atmosphere of comfort and healing. The opening portion of the book introduces Aunt Jane in her role at the hospital, showcasing her interactions with patients and medical staff. A scene unfolds in which a young man, a patient in the men's ward, curiously inquires about Aunt Jane's thoughts, only to find her contemplating mundane tasks like adjusting a mattress. This mix of the ordinary with the profound establishes her dual nature as a caretaker—she manages daily hospital duties while exuding a sense of peace and comfort to those around her. The narrative hints at Aunt Jane's deep connections with the patients, revealing her capacity to uplift their spirits, which becomes a recurring theme of the novel. As the story progresses, it becomes evident that Aunt Jane's presence is vital not only to the physical well-being of her patients but also to their emotional healing.
