Summary “The Landloper: The Romance of a Man on Foot” by Holman Day is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Walker Farr, a young man who travels on foot along a country road, embodying the essence of a wanderer or “landloper” with no fixed destination. His adventures and interactions with various characters reveal his outlook on life, as well as themes of individuality versus societal norms. At the start of the novel, Walker Farr meanders down a dusty highway, showing both a carefree spirit and a degree of aloofness. He encounters a suspicious farmer who assumes him to be a vagrant, leading to a humorous exchange. Walker primarily seems detached from the societal expectations as he interacts with a wealthy automobile owner and a young woman named Kat Kilgour, whom he finds captivating. Their brief yet profound encounter leaves a lasting impression on him. As he continues his journey, he reflects on the simplicity of life and the burdens of societal expectations, giving readers a glimpse into his philosophical musings and the unique characters he meets along the way.
