Priscilla and Charybdis: A Story of Alternatives Produced by David Widger from page images generously provided by the Internet Archive "Priscilla and Charybdis: A Story of Alternatives" by Frank Frankfort Moore is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around the character of Priscilla Wadhurst, who is depicted in an artistic context, particularly entwined with a local concert and the various personalities involved, notably a self-absorbed tenor named Kelton. The book explores themes of ambition, individuality, and the complexities of human relationships within a social framework. The opening portion of the novel introduces us to the bustling preparations for a concert in the small village of Framsby, where Morley Quorn and the other members of the chorus express disdain for the arrogant tenor, Mr. Kelton. As rehearsals unfold, tension arises between Kelton, whose egotistical demands frustrate the pianist, Mr. Tutt, and Priscilla, who ultimately steps forward to accompany Kelton when Tutt leaves in a huff. The social dynamics are further complicated by commentary from residents regarding Priscilla's previous misfortunes. Amidst this, Priscilla’s character begins to emerge as not merely a passive participant but rather as someone with a stronger voice and intent to reshape her circumstances and challenge the assumptions of her social milieu. This sets the stage for her potential growth throughout the story.
