Volumes 1 and 2 Produced by Marc D'Hooghe (Images generously made available by the Hathi Trust.) "Dodo: A Detail of the Day" by E. F. Benson is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around the protagonist Dodo, a charming and outspoken young woman navigating the complexities of love and society, particularly as she prepares for her upcoming marriage to Lord Chesterford. The narrative explores themes of relationships, societal expectations, and the nature of happiness through witty dialogue and character interactions. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to a vibrant scene in London during a pleasant June day. The main character, Dodo, has just become engaged, which stirs a wave of reactions among her acquaintances, specifically Jack Broxton, who had previously proposed to her. The dialogue reveals Dodo's candid personality as she discusses her views on love, marriage, and her own desires, showing a conflict between societal norms and her personal aspirations. Jack, initially shocked by her engagement, expresses concern for Chesterford, whom he believes may not recognize the reality of Dodo's personality. The opening sets up a rich exploration of how love can be misunderstood while establishing the dynamics between the main characters.
