E-text prepared by Stephen Hutcheson, Roger Frank, and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team (http://www.pgdp.net)
"Nan of the Gypsies" by Grace May North is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Gypsy Nan, a young girl who navigates life in a Romany caravan while facing the challenges posed by both her vibrant gypsy heritage and the oppressive figures surrounding her. The opening suggests themes of belonging, identity, and the quest for freedom, setting up Nan’s journey both literally and metaphorically. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Nan, a spirited and defiant thirteen-year-old girl who resists the commands of the cruel Romany rye, Anselo Spico, and seeks to protect her friend Tirol, a physically deformed boy, from his cruelty. The gypsy caravan sets up camp near the village of San Seritos, where Nan exhibits bravery in defending those she cares about. Following her heartfelt interactions with Tirol and the oppressive nature of Spico, the initial chapters lay the groundwork for her subsequent escape and adventures. The opening paints a vivid picture of her colorful world and hints at the adventure and emotional struggles that await her. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
