Wastralls: A Novel
Produced by Al Haines
"Wastralls: A Novel" by C. A. Dawson Scott is a work of fiction written in the early 20th century. This novel unfolds in a secluded Cornish setting, focusing on the life of Sabina Rosevear, a strong-willed woman who inherits the family farm, Wastralls, following her father's death. As she navigates the complexities of her newfound responsibilities, the narrative delves into themes of gender roles, family dynamics, and the struggle for autonomy in a traditionally male-dominated society. At the start of the story, we are introduced to the beautiful yet rugged landscape of Trevorrick and the history of the Rosevear family, emphasizing the legacy and expectations placed upon Sabina as the last heir of Wastralls. Shortly after her father's passing, Sabina attempts to assert her authority over the farm, despite the complications of her recent marriage to Leadville Byron, who struggles with his feelings about her disability after a severe accident. The opening portions establish the tension between Sabina's determination to manage the land and Leadville's traditional views on gender roles, setting the stage for a nuanced exploration of their relationship and the broader implications for the community around them.
