| Summary | "Teresa of Watling Street: A Fantasia on Modern Themes" by Arnold Bennett is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Richard Redgrave, a young man who has transitioned from a clerk to a specialist in private inquiries. Set against the backdrop of early 1900s London, the narrative explores themes of wealth, mystery, and the subtleties of human behavior, particularly as Richard gets embroiled in the curious case surrounding a bank manager named Raphael Craig. The opening of the novel introduces Richard as he navigates a bustling area of the City of London, stepping into a world of banking that is as romantic as it is complex. With a blend of imagination and ambition, Richard attends a meeting with the directors of the British and Scottish Bank, where he is tasked with investigating Craig, who recently inherited a large fortune yet remains dedicated to his banking career. As the story unfolds, Richard’s inquiry leads him to Dunstable and a circus, where he encounters Teresa Craig, Raphael's daughter, and uncovers layers of mystery and danger intertwined with her family's secrets. The narrative sets the stage for a thrilling adventure filled with intrigue and the exploration of modern life’s eccentricities. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
