| Summary | "The Eddy: A Novel of Today" by Clarence Louis Cullen is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the character Mrs. Treharne, a haggard and troubled woman who yearns for a son but finds herself grappling with the impending return of her daughter, Louise, from finishing school. The narrative explores themes of maternal anxiety, societal expectations, and the secrets that come to light in the wake of Louise's unexpected arrival home. At the start of the book, the character dynamics are established through Mrs. Treharne's interactions with her friend Laura and her maid Heloise. Mrs. Treharne expresses her frustration and fears about Louise coming home for good, revealing her insecurities about being a mother in a disordered household. The opening presents an unhappy home life, punctuated by Mrs. Treharne's concerns about her evident shortcomings and the looming judgment her daughter will bring into their unseemly social circle. Meanwhile, Louise emerges as a thoughtful young woman eager for connection, returning to a mother she feels she barely knows, setting the stage for the exploration of their complicated relationship as the story unfolds.
