Summary "Chetwynd Calverley" by William Harrison Ainsworth is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around family dynamics, betrayal, and the impact of a father's choices on his children, particularly focusing on Chetwynd Calverley, who faces turmoil following his father's unexpected marriage to his former fiancée, Teresa Mildmay. The narrative explores themes of jealousy, inheritance, and the complexities of love and forgiveness. At the start of the story, we meet Mildred Calverley, who is anxiously awaiting her brother Chetwynd's return to their family home, Ouselcroft. Chetwynd learns about their father's serious illness and the unexpected marriage between his father and Teresa, who was once engaged to him. Their conversation reveals longstanding tensions in the family, particularly Chetwynd's bitterness toward his stepmother, as he grapples with feelings of betrayal and loss. This opening sets the stage for an intense exploration of familial relationships and the consequences of swift decisions, foreshadowing the drama that will unfold as Chetwynd confronts his past and seeks to navigate his future amid his family's conflicts.
