Summary: "The Athelings; or, the Three Gifts" by Margaret Oliphant is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around the Atheling family, particularly focusing on three siblings—Marian, Agnes, and their older brother Charlie. It explores themes of family dynamics, youthful aspirations, and the challenges of navigating societal expectations in a modest suburban setting. The beginning of the novel introduces us to the two sisters, Marian and Agnes, who are described as having strikingly different natures and appearances. Marian's beauty and carefree spirit contrast with Agnes's ambition and introspective tendencies. They are depicted walking through their suburban neighborhood, infusing life into the mundane street. Shortly after, they are joined by their older brother Charlie, who grapples with his own uncertainties about the future. The family struggles with modest means but shares a warm, loving home filled with small joys and aspirations, setting a tone of both hope and realism for what lies ahead in their lives.
