"The Helpers" by Francis Lynde is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book depicts the story of Henry Jeffard, a man who relocates to Denver with aspirations of success but soon finds himself grappling with the harsh realities of life and struggle. The narrative weaves together themes of ambition, despair, and the pursuit of redemption as Jeffard encounters various characters who reflect different societal values and struggles. At the start of the novel, Jeffard attends an opera in Denver, where he inadvertently creates an impression on two young women, Connie and Myra, who engage in playful banter regarding his manners. Despite feeling out of place and disheartened about his circumstances in Denver, Jeffard's perspective begins to shift thanks to an unexpected and meaningful conversation with Connie. The opening chapters reveal Jeffard's internal conflict, as he balances his ambitions with the dawning realization of his failures, setting the stage for further exploration of human compassion, societal judgment, and the search for personal redemption. The interactions between characters introduce the themes of kindness and assistance in the face of adversity, framing Jeffard's journey in a broader context of human experience.
