| Summary | "Sweet Clover: A Romance of the White City" by Clara Louise Burnham is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the societal dynamics of the time, centering around the characters Clover Bryant and Jack Van Tassel. Clover, caught between familial responsibilities and personal desires, faces significant challenges, while Jack navigates his transition from college life to adulthood and the complexities of relationships within a changing social environment. At the start of the narrative, Clover’s family is struggling with financial difficulties after the death of her father, resulting in Clover taking on adult responsibilities at a young age. The story introduces Clover’s strong sense of duty towards her ailing mother and three younger siblings, contrasted with Jack’s recent college graduation and the expectations placed upon him by his father. Their relationship is complicated by Jack's father, who seems to express romantic interest in Clover, creating tension as the dynamics between wealth, duty, and love begin to unfold. The opening sets the stage for a romance that intertwines with themes of class disparity and personal aspirations against the backdrop of the upcoming World’s Fair in Chicago.
